Im not very computer literate!!! the system was working fine but I went into the library and for some stupid reason clicked on restore default settings, and all my files have now gone. ( where to i have no idea) I tried a restore point to see if that would put them back but it hasnt worked.. HELP

Perhaps they are in the new location If you updated LimeWire & cannot find your Downloads.

You can always check by doing a computer search & searching for the audio file extension, eg: .mp3 & see which locations they are at. Then go back to LW, menu bar choose Tools -> Options -> Saving & press Browse & direct it to that location. :)

hmm might be related to some settings. Go to Tools > Options > Advanced > Performance & Disable all options by checking them all. See if that makes a difference. :) If not, disable OOB Searching under Speed options. ;)

Or perhaps just restarting LW might fix it back up. It might only be temporary. ;) The listening port setting might have been inadvertently changed from the one LW was using in UPnP mode. A restart of LW might fix it up. :)

thanks, looked where you said and i actually found them and restored them.. Many thanks
