![]() Limewire 5.1.4 on Windows Xp SP2 I have noticed that even when I uninstal and erase the folder restart the computer, reinstall limewire that when I look in recent downloads it still finds my downloads!! Yes I know I can tick a box to clear the history but after everything I have done to delete all files where on my computer is it getting this information? Kind regards EV |

![]() Probably from the limewire props file in the LimeWire (LW's user preferences) folder within Application Data\Limewire. Click on thumbnail to enlarge the image ![]() If you uninstall LW the LimeWire folder remains on your computer, unless you search for LimeWire within hidden files & folders (Application Data's hidden by default) & delete from there. That way, if you reinstall LW then your preferences are maintained from one version to the next. The location of the LimeWire folder is... XP: C:\Documents and Settings\your username\Application Data\LimeWire Vista: C:\Users\your username\AppData\Roaming\LimeWire OS X: Users -> Account Name -> Library -> Preferences -> LimeWire If you have more questions about why certain files aren't deleted while removing LW, try asking at the LW forum & a developer might be able to give you more info ![]() Click on the blue link to go to the LW forum: LimeWire Forums Last edited by birdy; July 23rd, 2009 at 12:29 AM. |
