:welcomeani::yikes:awww come on there have been several hits on my question cant anyone at least tell me who to ask?????

Check and make sure you have it set to use the LW player. Open LW and go to Tools>Options>Player, make sure there is a tick beside "Use the LW Player", click "Apply".

If that doesn't work, try deleting your preference folder: http://www.gnutellaforums.com/window...tml#post183932

You have hopped a step too far forward in the directory. Those files are found within the LimeWire (preferences) folder. Delete the above folder. ;)

delete folder
 

ok did exactly what it said to do. except get this!! the file wont delete!!!! i have the newest free version as does my son on this very same pc and he has volume controll and i dont on my log in !!!! now what??? sorry to be a pain but i get an error message saying i cant delete or rename or do anything to that file. :mad: kim west

File will not delete if, LW is still running, or else, you don't have admin permissions for that folder or directory.

You could always try setting up a new account on your computer & using LW on there instead or as an experiment to see if it runs ok. :)
