Question INCOMPLETE folder HELP

The incomplete folder on my desktop has some files in it that are 80% or mor complete but starting yesterday in Limewire whe I try to resume a file it shows no progress. How can I make it show what is in the desktop incomplete folder?
Also I downloaded Frostwire a few days ago and it was faster than LW but didn't have as many choices but they have over the last few days sorta combined. Can I uninstall FW without messing anything up? If I have to uninstall either and reinstall will it affect the videos I already have dowloaded?
Any help would be appreciated.

ngmm,

Your incomplete files may have become corrupted and need to start over. More info in these threads:

You should be able to uninstall either program without effecting your library, but you'll need to back up your incomplete files folder if you want to save them.

Uninstall using the uninstall.exe that came with the program and not the add/remove programs. The location should be C:\Program Files\FrosyWire\uninstall.exe or C:\Program Files\LimeWire\uninstall.exe.

I tried that and the incomplete files are at zero in limewire and have the correct % in the desktop folder.

"If" you're using LW 4.12 then they will continue from where they were but only if they start downlding.
Otherwise they'll show zero %. ie: once they start downlding again they should be fine.

Thanks I'll try that they are hard to find videos and I'd hate to start from scratch.

It worked great it showed 0% but when it started downloading it went to the % it was supposed to.
