no installation "finish"
 

when installing, first few windows (ie, share folders) work ok with "next" button but I eventually come to a window without either a "next" or "finish" button. How do I finish the install...

This is the Phex forum...are you using Phex?
This is a common LimeWire problem...please let us know if you use LW.

no installation finish
 

Yes, sorry, I hadn't realized I got lost in another forum...

I was trying to install Limewire with the noted results. Do you have any advice since this is a common problem...

Try the advice below, that's fixed things for most people:)

have checked settings
 

I checked font settings and is set to normal. What else can I try?

install miscellaneous settings no install finish or next
 

it is a "miscellaneous settings" window that has no next or finish buttons. Is there a fix for this?

Thanks. I set my font to normal and all is well!

Are you using LW's online or offline installer? Use the offline...less chance of any corruption. When you click to download & a dialog box pops up, cancel it. Now use the option to download the offline installer.

If that still doesn't help, try the 'other' installer & see whether that works properly.
