Thanks for your replies:

I did click on the "+" sign next to the saved folders so as to open all of the various folders in order to navigate between, so I could try to view only video, or audio, etc., downloaded files, rather than having to slog among all of them mixed together when opening the "Saved" folder under the "Limewire" folder in "My Documents." That was one of my main points about the way prior versions of Limewire worked that made it such a user-friendly a versatile program. Clicking on each individual folder in the left-hand folder pane opens nothing now.

As far as totally deleting everything "Limewire" off of my PC and redownloading from scratch (except of course my "Saved" and "Shared" folders), I can certainly try that as a last resort, but Limewire's newest version was working as Limewire always has in the past, AFTER downloading this lastest upgrade of it, then suddenly started with these problems in approx. the last 2 weeks or so by now.

I was able to open and navigate between the folders in the latest version then, all of a sudden, even though the Limewire version hadn't changed, the ability to do that suddenly just stopped working, and I had to type the names of downloaded files in my "Saved" folder into the search bar in Limewire's "Library" tab to have ANYTHING come up in the center window pane. And don't forget, clicking on the "Incomplete" folder won't open that either, so incomplete downloads that have been stopped for any reason need Limewire to be closed and reopened again just to get them to resume downloading!

Before I go the the extent of completely eradicating Limewire from my PC, including the registry, has Gutnella/Limewire made any changes to this newest version of their program? And, if no one on this Technical Support communiy forum knows the answer to that, is there any way to get these problems in front of the program design/technical engineers at Gutnella/Limewire, and get a reply from them and/or get an uprade that corrects these problems?

Thanks again for any and all replies, especially directly from Gutnella/Limewire, who I certainly hope monitor these forums!
