can't add the shared file to sharing

Under tools, options, saving, the shared file seems to be in the right place. The problem is that when I go to tools, options, sharing, I can't add the shared file even when I find it and select it. Any Ideas?

You can only add folders, are you trying to share a single file???

No, I tried to add the shared folder, and it will not add. The shared folder is not showing up in my library at all! Is there anything I can do?

tools -> options -> sharing

Try adding it here.

Try restarting LimeWire.

Try another folder.

I tried to add it many times, and then I tried another folder, but I figured it out. I couldn't go to the folder and just add it. I had to click on the limewire folder and then type in shared under the file section on the lower part. Then when I pushed select, it added it to the sharing section.
I know this is hard to make sense of, but the good news is that it now works.
Thank you for your help!!
