Hey man why do you think your library is gone?? What exactly is happening?? While in the LW Library Click on Saved Files (Left column) and see if this brings back your files.

Upon restarting, I went back into LimeWire and it walked me through the steps (as if I was getting it for the first time on my computer) install wizard set it up.....i went to my library....nothing there. once again, thanks for your help..text me back.....thanks.........-larry

Question Ahhh!


I'm having the same problem! I had almost 2000 files in my library and I can't seem to find them now that I've finally updated to 4.16.6. I checked the "saved files" tab and there's nothing there. There is a screen on my "shared files" tab that says something about configuring which files I want to share, and when I click the button it doesn't seem to be helping me, so I just cancel it. I tried looking for my music files to add to my shared list, but there are no music files anywhere to be found. I check marked every box that says what types of files I want to share too, and that isn't working either. I would really appreciate any helpful feedback. Thanks!!

Thanks, but still no luck. I'm beginning to think that my files just aren't there anymore. Is that possible?

i dont think so. once you download them they are in your computer, it's just a matter of finding them. maybe someone with more experience can help.... good luck

This just happened to me, too. I finally updated after ignoring th emessage and POOF! Everythings gone! I actually didn't mean to update because I don't trust updates and this is why, lol! I must have hit "enter" or something because I had no intention of updating.
Anyway, I checked the library and it's absoltely empty! I had hundreds of songs and they're gone. I know they are probably still in my computer in the shared file, but in Limewire they are gone! I want to listen to them WHILE I am in LW, not have to load up another program.
This bites!

I just installed the newest version of Limewire and the "configure" screen came up. My library was intack and things were fine until I lost my library. I went to configure (not really knowing what it was that should be configured) and unchecked one that I thought was my document files. I went back to my library and it was gone. What folder should my library be listed in? I have never changed anything before, so the folder should be in a general one. My son will be very upset with me if I lost his downloads. Please help me.
