That installer will always be the same version as the original installer - we provide it as backup. |
"sberlin As zab mentioned, you can use that zip file to begin using LimeWire immediately. To help us fix the Windows problem for the future, though, at which point did the installer freeze? Does it always freeze if you rerun it multiple times? "...YES!
The "LimeWireOther" zip file got the program to open in version 4.4.3 , it put an icon in the taskbar but it did not install an icon on the desk top nor add the program to the Add/Remove program folder.Then if I wanted to exit the program for any reason, I would have to reinstall by using the .exe in the zip file Basically it does the same as opening the LimeWireExecutable Jar File found in the C:\Program Files\LimeWire, folder. This folder always gets installed even though the program instalation hangs before completing and my computer has to be restarted.
The install execute always stops at:-"C:\ProgramFiles\LimeWire\execNoWindow.exe""C:\Pro gramFiles\LimeWire\unpack200.exe"
-r "C:\ProgramFiles\LimeWire\id3v2pack"
"C:\ProgramFiles\LimeWire...This is as far as I could go. I hope this will help to resolve the install problem.
I am able to use LimeWire as it is but would like to have it without the above quirks would appreciate your feedback
