If you just uninstall first you will not need to burn your .limewire folder it should remain in C:/Documents and Settings/User Name your data and .bak files should remain in the incomplete folder. You may want to make copies of them but I have never had a problem.
Your Themes folder is located in C:/Documents and Settings/User Name/.limewire you should be able to delete them from there. | Sorry! To clarify: I use AddRemove, then delete manually the Limewire Program folder and .limewire folder, and all reg entries. I restart, and then install new version and reset prefs.
Re: themes, I have found and deleted extra themes per that path, but they "resurrect themselves" upon reopening the program. There are the theme "files" and above them the folders for that theme - I delete both - but they return. Optimally I would like to keep default and CarbonClassic ONLY, so others never appear again. If that's not possible that's fine - I was just wondering.
I will try burning .limewire to CD, and should I do subsequent reinstalls, try dragging that replacement (obviously making sure it's not marked "read only" coming from a CD) - and see if it works. It would save having to re-enter filters, junk prefs, regular prefs, etc. I much appreciate the response, Grandpa - thank you.  |
