How Do I Discard Bad Downloaded Song Files?

[K Rosenkranz]

I have Limewire 5.0.11. I downloaded a few songs, which are located in the Limeiwre "My Library" section. The songs files also appeared on my desktop. I put the songs I wanted to keep in my ITunes. I deleted the rest from my desktop by placing them in my desktop recycle bin.

One song - ****** - turned out to be a bad download. I deleted it from "My Library" and then I tried to delete it from my desktop. When I try to do this, a message pops up saying: "Cannot delete ******: It is being used by another person or program. Close any program that might be using file and try again."

I have searched my computer for this program and I cannot find it. I checked "mydocumentsandseetings/keithrosenkranz/limewire" and nothing exists in ".limewire." I can't find it anywhere else but on my desktop.

How do I delete this particular song file? It is stuck on my desktop and I can't figure out what to do. Can anyone help me please?

Thank you.

Make sure LW is closed when you attempt to delete the file. If still will not delete: Some tools & advice here Incomplete Download File won't delete at all (click on link). I do not recommend downloading to the desktop, it is a hazardous method. I am aware of one bad file which corrupts the surrounding folder. Only way to delete it is to delete the parent folder. If that's your desktop folder then ...

Thank you for your help. Amazing as this may sound, I downloaded a song a few minutes ago and the song I wrote about changed to a different looking file on my desktop. I tried to delete it and it worked! I'm not sure what happened, but my problem has been solved.

How do I change things so songs do not download to my desktop?

Thank you again!
