JAVAW.EXE and Limestir

newtothis · #1 (**permalink**) October 20th, 2001

I was runnning Limewire and have since recommended it to everyone I can think - what a great program! Limewire got deleted off of my computer and I re - installed it. Everytime I try to run it off of my computer, a box comes up saying that the computer cannot find the "javaw.exe" file.

Really frustrated - can anyone help

I am not sure. Is there a connection. I am trying to find out where I can get javaw.exe from and re - install it. Any ideas?

Did you try searching for it? If you're running:

Windows 95/98/ME/XP it should be in C:\windows\system32
Windows NT/2000 it should be in C:\winnt\system32

Yes, there's a connection. LimeWire runs through javaw.exe; there's no LimeWire.exe.
