Default Deleting files from Library

This is just the latest episode of deleting files from library - resulting in files being lost forever

Please - can we have some kind of warning window telling of the consequences of deleting files from the library - people just don't know that this will happen.

Guys, its not funny losing Files, why deleting them from shared list.
It also deleted it from my harddisk.... and i couldnt get them back, now im trying to find them again.
So im searching a program like Norton Rescue. This program can find them back, if they havent been overwritten on the harddisk..

If any one knows a shareware or freeware for this it would help me, cuz i dont have norton anymore....

I think thats something you should change in this program...

I just wanted to remove from shared files... and not to delete from my harddisk.

Thanx

Red face Deleting from Lib

User error due to user confusion.

Deleting from the Library does exactly that - Permanently deletes files.

If there are files you want to keep - but not share - then you need to copy that file to a different directory - then remove from the library from within limewire.

The program was working properly.

Default I cannot delete files

I'm having the opposite problem it sounds like. Im on a mac with Limewire 5.5.8 and there doesnt seem to be a delete button anywhere. Dragging and dropping in the trash isnt working either. Where is my delete button? Can anyone help?

On mac, hold down the Control key as you select the file & you will see a menu appear with Delete option.
To select multiple files, select them whilst holding down Command key & select the last one whilst also holding down the Control key at same time as Command key.
