problem connecting
 
Hi guys, I'm new here so bare with me if this thread is placed in the wrong section.


Every time i start my limewire a message appears stating:




"LimeWire was unable to write a necessary file because you do not have the necessary permissions. Your preferences may not be maintained the next time you start LimeWire, or Lime Wire may behave in unexpected ways."



I have full administrative privileges so i can't figure out what to do next.

need help, save me!!!

Reinstall Java. Use the JRE offline installer & remove your current Java version before you install this one.

Next, delete LW's preferences folder when LW's properly closed. See point 3 here & also point 2 if you've used older versions of LW in the past (there could be a folder in either location).
Fixes for LimeWire
This will kill all of your settings within options, you'll have to go back through afterwards & reset things. If you're not sure of your settings, go through LW's tools > options & write them all down, so that you can reset things later.
