LimeWire GUI does not open ("nothing happens") Hi list, after I used the online installer for limewire and started the program, nothing really happened. "limewire.exe" was added to running processes in the windows task-manager, but it's GUI did not open. I then followed instructions found here: uninstalled both limewire and java, downloaded the manual installation packages, installed first java and successfully tested it on java.com, then installed limewire. again, "limewire.exe" was reported as a running process in windows task-manager, but no user interface opened. i'm using: - windows xp home ed sp2 - jre 5.7 - limewire 4.10.9 is this a known issue? what else can i do? thanks in advance! |

I had this once. What I did was, uninstalled Java and LW. Then I put them both on the desktop. Then I started the installation of LW (not having Java pre-installed). The LW client then used the JRE off-line installer by itself to install and integrate it into LW. I remember that I use the 1.5.0_05 to do so. You might want to give it a try. Another optionwould be to delete .limewire preference folder Point #2 & 3 in Fixes for Limewire http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showth...threadid=36420
