new 2.7 resume feature a joke
 

I couldnt wait to try it finally the ability to resume incomplete downloads lost
in the incomplete file in my library, not since version 1.8 could I do that with any
hope of really getting it to work every time, 1.8 is really bad for searches
compared to the newer versions but it could always be counted on to resume
anything with the same name and size every time. I missed that so much. I
thought my wait was finally over and limewire had brought back that ability
well guess what it will resume incomplete files once they are lost permanently
but they will usually start over from zero so what good is that ? It only looks
like something important is happening with this new feature but its the same old
problem.

additional info
 

When I wrote that post I had just downloaded the new version and all of my
incomplete downloads that had carried over from the 2.6 had all started from
zero including some that were almost finished so I wasnt too happy, after
using this software a little more I have found that new downloads I started
with this software will resume but only from requery. In version 1.8 I can
always take an incomplete download lost and regain it from where it left off
as long as I can find the same type name and size. I miss that .

the 0% is actually a bug with the display.

once limewire gets another queryhit from the network that matches the file you're resuming, it'll pick up where it left off. the next version should fix the bug, so that resuming will correctly display the percent you completed before hitting resume.
