Disapearing downloads 4.2.6

[legacyken]

I'm a windows user with 4meg broadband. I leave limewire running permantly. Since updating to 4.2.6 my list of download files has twice shrunk overnight.

I start the night with say 100 files to download. I recive 20 or so but only 30 remain on my list. Whats happened to the other 50. They are not elsewere on the PC. Its a bit of a pain searching for these files again as the files Im looking for are hard to find. More often than not resulting in none found. Once ive found a source i dont like loosing it again.

I did not have this problem before i upgraded.

Any suggestions

Check your Tools>Options>Downloads & is Auto-clear completed Dwnlds ticked? And you used the Explore button to check your Saved Files folder from LW's Library window?
It might be a bug.

auto clear is tick'd but the missing files are not in saved. (some files are in saved so i dont think its that).

I've untick'd autoclear to see if makes a differance. But 2 nights since 4.2.6 loaded and 2 nights of missing files does seem a little odd when things were fine before that.

As you say it could be a bug. I'll count the downloads tonight and see what ive got tomorrow. ill keep you posted.

UPDATE:

Having spent some time today searching again for my required downloads, I have noticed that many of the files that went missing overnight are being found with the broken page symbal next to them as if the download had been terminated.

I know the download was not terminated from my computer and wonder if the system is in some way doing it.

things seem to have settled down now. On reflection it would appear that the affected files were all on the download list before I updated to 4.2.6. It looks like the update may have affected them in some way.

New additions are behaving properly.

That's good news but odd all the same. I've never had issues with dwnlds/incompletes after updating LW, but I have had an issue with incompletes when I went to an earlier version (eg: LW 4.1.7 back to LW 4.0.4, I didn't have that issue with 4.1.4 or 5 going backward)
