![]() Thanks very much for replying, Sleepless. I should have caught the copyright error, and think I have corrected it now. Yes, I realize the MB vs. KB sizes are the same; what I didn't communicate well (sorry) is that I have, sitting in my Incomplete Dir in Windows Explorer, the file showing that size (i.e., 908.4), BUT in the LW D/L status window, it is showing only 21% has been d/l'd. As a overview, I have what appear to be fully d/l'd files in my Incomplete dir, but their status in the LW D/L Progress window shows anywhere from 0% (Awaiting Sources) to (at a glance) 54% (for example). AND... none of the files in the Incomplete dir will play in their entirety; oh, some will play to a point, some will not open (error message in WMP). BULLETIN: I just found one file (~398 MB) in the Inc dir which played; so there may a few others. We are talking about over 30 files, and over 12 GB. If I am being overly dense regarding your explanation, apologies... but I don't think, based on your answer, that it was realized there "seem" to be completed file downloads which are not being recognized by LW and/or not being released (and tagged/processed as completed). Any further aid would be much appreciated. Cruising Bull |

![]() Sleepness, As mentioned above, aha!! ![]() I notice the dim glow of a 20w lightbulb in the far distance... unless that's a locomotive bearing down on me. Last question about this topic: should I have seen that (the advance allocation of file space per file) somewhere? I.E., is this a RTFM situation I stumbled into? ![]() Take care, and thanks again, Henry |

![]() This was not a RTFM question. Actually I think you're the first to ask it (At least since I joined this forum) People sometimes ask what is taking up so much e space, but otherwise no. Might be good to include it here: Partly downloaded files that you cancel in the dowload window are not deleted from the incomplete folder, in case you want to continue them later. They should be deleted from them manually if not wanted. Same goes for previewed files. They are copied in the incomplete folder. In case you do this outside of Limewire, DO NOT delete the Downloads.dat and Downloads.bak files unless you want to start clean, as they keep all the info on pending and completed downloads. |
