Limewire remembering all of my settings/preferences after reinstall I found this post while searching on Google and it pretty much sums up the problem I'm having, except I'm using a Mac.
"if you uninstall limewire then reinstall it 6 months later The application has remembered your settings from 6 months ago its not a fresh install. When you uninstall limewire it leaves something hidden somewhere that remembers all the options you set even your proxy details. How do you find where this is being remembered. If you go into reg edit type limewire under registry lots of files are left behind its a good half hours work even delete these and the program still remembers your settings on new install how dose it do this please. Its got me so mad that i formatted my hard drive twice. What we want to know how do you get limewire and frostwire completely out your system lock stock and barrel if you never used it you will never understand what us users mean."
Somehow Limewire is remembering my Settings and remembering this pesky file that will not stop trying to download in the Downloads box after many, many uninstalls and reinstalls of Limewire. I've also noticed after I reinstall Limewire and I open it, I don't get the usual 'welcome' type box where you choose your settings, clicking next, next, etc.
Any suggestions? |
