incomplete files do not necessarily show in Library for LW 5. They should definitely show in the Downloads window however. In LW 5 there is no incomplete folder per se in library.

Default I am on an Intel Mac

and I'm still having trouble - the "lost" download names have reappeared but the actual partial files that were in the incomplete folder are totally gone and my hard drive shows 60gb opened up. Where those files went I don't know because they didn't go to the trash and I didn't delete them. I didn't delete the .dat & .bak files only moved them to the trash. I have found another set of these files in my downloads folder but have no idea how they got there and I'm afraid to touch for fear of losing the 4-5 partial downloads that didn't disappear.

Also, I am getting nowhere near the results I was getting with previous versions. All of my video searches show nothing but obvious junk/virus files for some CBS pilot and something called Women's World. I can't even get the junk results I used to get. Why won't the mostly decent search results I got in 4.18 show up in LW5?

Thanks for all the responses, btw.

Perhaps those particular ones finished downloading. Incomplete files start with a prefix T-xxx - filename. If the files do not have that then they are completed.

Again, I suggest you downgrade to LW 4 for 3-6 months until LW 5 picks up its act.

Default Bogus search results

Beginning yesterday, I also started receiving A LOT of both "CBS..." and "Womans World EP..." results with nearly every search. I have not upgraded Limewire for months, if not years - still running 4.12.3 Pro.

What's happened?!
