Limewire says I am missing a dll File???
 
Alright well I had reformatted my computer and I just had installed the new Limewire, except that I had installed it onto my desktop, evertime I opened Limewire it had a temporary file on my desktop. I kept deleting it and it came back. Something happened and my limewire symbol disapered and so I went into add/remove Limewire and I guess it had already been uninstalled yet it kept working. So I took the whole thing off and started from scratch. Thing is now I don't know where the destination folder should be? I put it in C:\Limewire Program\LimeWire\ but halfway through it says:

This application has failed to start because MSVCR71.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem. I have done that 4 times and it keeps doinf the same thing.

Why is it doing that and how do I fix this very annoying problem?

Thank you.

I now have it, but now what do I do? Open it, or extract it?

WOW! Thank you so much, it automaticly finsished the install by itself and works. Question is now. Where should I save my music too. Right now it says

C:\Limewire Program\limewire

If I save it there will all my music files go there? and if so how can I get quick and easy access to them?

Not the best location for Limewire. Uninstall it

Press start>programs>Limewire>uninstall or use the uninstall file is in the Limewire folder

The reinstall Limewire into the programs folder

Check after opening Limewire where your saving folder is

Within Limewire choose Tools>options>Saving You wil then see path to savefolder.
(Default would be c:documents and settings/*Your Username*/shared)

Also when reinstalling don't let Limewire scan for mediafiles. Add folders to share yourself instead

Alright I am now using Limewire and downloading, it says they are going into /myusername/shared. Where is this file and if so can I put it on my desktop so I can access all my downloaded stuff from there?

It's a folder not a file

It would be in C:\Documents and Settings\*Your Username*

Don't move the folder. It will mess up Limewire. Just right-click on it and press create shortcut. Then move the shortcut to your desktop or where ever you like

Enjoy
