Resume still needs to be improved Almost all of us have incomplete files sitting around in our incomplete folder with NO way to resume. Either a system freeze has corrupted the incomplete data file or you've accidentally killed the wrong download. The result is always the same: start over from 0% and curse at hours of wasted download time and at those damn, useless incomplete files!
Please, please, please put a resume function in the incomplete library window to automatically resume the download and do a search for the filename on Gnutella if the previously used server(s) are no longer available. To do this properly, Limewire would need to save a backup copy of IP addresses for the partial files in the incomplete folder every few minutes in case of system freezes.
Leave the other bells and whistles like meta-data and virtual folders for later. This is a fundamental shortcoming of Limewire. Please resolve it! |
