i am a new limewire user{free} and it seems I have two applications of limewire running on my computer. I wanted to uninstall them and re-install because i really like the program. I went to uninstall but all that happened was the desktop icon was removed. There are two icons still in my tray and I can still connect to livewire thru either of them but it seems one is corrupted or only partially installed. How can I remove limewire from my computer? I want to re-install it but my computer is running slow now and something is definitely screwed up. Please help!

You should uninstall LW via the 'uninstall' application, NOT via add/remove programs.

Good Luck :rolleyes_2:

Also, if you have a problem of 2 LW's running, then after you close one, the other one is still probably running. You'd need to control-alt-del & open process manager & look for any LimeWires listed & force them all to quit before uninstalling. Search your computer for all possible LW's.

I did use the uninstall application not add/remove programs. Is there someway I can download uninstall since it is no longer listed in all programs?:blink:

Reinstalling will uninstall other version at beginning of installation process. However before you do, make sure there is no LW listed as running in the process manager. BTW There's 2 locations you can find the uninstaller: Start menu > Programs > LW > Uninstall. And also within the program folder.
