I can assure you , since I almost ONLY search for "rare" files, if my incomplete files become corrupt because I accidentally jumped back a version or whatever, I try to move on. Put it down to experience. As frustrating as it might be. Besides, if you've had LW for longer that 18 months, the due to the changes within LW, there would have been incompletes you would never have been able to resume anyway.

Sorry if my suggestion caused you problems & havoc, etc. But it was the most obvious suggestion to make. You could always buy pro & ask their support. I'm sure they'd know better than me.
If you delete your preferences there is a 100% chace that you will be left with the default preferences next time you launch the application

the default is keep any files that are 7 days old

delete any others

this is what Limewire does the first time you launch it after deleting the prefs folder

a very simple and basic aspect. Pretty logical if you think about it. If you actually remember what the default setting of 7 days is.

Limewire pro support have never responded to my emails despite buying the software and 6 month updates several times.
