Wrong Folder???? When I use then connection fix - September the gnutella file goes to C:\Users\*MyName*\AppData\Roaming\Limewire and LimeWire has its own gnutella file in C:\Users\*MyName*\.limewire Why? |
Edit: above problem is caused by java updates being 64-bit. Re-installing the 32-bit java last fixes the problem. Symptoms are changed locations for both the settings folder and download folder, and error window when opening LW and disability of connecting. That seems odd. C:\Users\*MyName*\AppData\Roaming\Limewire is the default for Vista and Windows 7 for LW's preferences folder. Only reason it might be sent somewhere else is if a props file within the LW application folder is telling it to. Which version of LimeWire are you using? Maybe a very old LW 4 version? I cannot remember which version of LW 4 changed location for the prefs folder, around 4.10 or so. It sounds more like you are using a portable version of LW or something. If you are using Linux then yes I could understand the file being in a location similar to what you described. I think C:\Users\*MyName*\.limewire is the default location for Linux, they still use the .limewire location. I am sorry I have not created a similar installer for Linux. I tried a year ago and totally wiped an entire 1 TB drive, so I was not enthusiastic to try again after that though I did try at least. I do not use Linux myself. I could create one to be installed via Windows, but do all Linux users have Windows installed on their systems? |
LimeWire help? I use windows 8. But I moved the gnutella.net file to the correct location and limewire 5.6.2 pirate edition is working now :) but i just wanted to let you know that the connection fix is posting it in the wrong location. Im so confused because everyone else seems to have it right. Maybe its because im using windows 8. Thanks :) |

I can now open Limewire, but still have the same problem as I orignally did. It says "connecting" and the bars on the lower left are blank. What's the next step? |
Have you tried a fresh LPE ConnectFix? LPE ConnectFix.zip (click on link) LW must be closed when you use the connectfix. And after opening LW leave it running 20-30 minutes. If still no connection close LW and re-open and leave it running up to an hour and see if it connects. |

Good to hear you are now connected anyway. Strange happenings lol. I guess I shouldn't say we are not supposed to talk about warez on the forum, you were put on the spot with a query. :D :wasntme: |
