Default Not launching...

Hey all, I have restarted my computer and redownloaded LimeWire. I have downloaded two songs so far as I have just reinstalled it, and they have downloaded alright, but they won't begin. When I click launch nothing happens, what shall I do? Thanks.

By the way, sorry if this is in the wrong forum, i'm very new to these forums.

Did you preview the songs as they were downloading? There's a chance that you've downloaded some junk files. Try playing them from your saved folder, outside of LW. Go to your LW library, click on Saved files & then click Explore. Once the saved folder opens, try to play the files & try using a couple of different players.

Check out the tips here
How to find music

If the files play ok from the saved folder, delete LW's preferences folder when LW's closed. See point 3 below. This will kill all of your settings within options, you'll have to go back through & reset things afterwards.

See if that makes a difference, things might launch properly now!

Ah, sorry a bit late to reply. The problem was I didn't have Java installed, you can't play songs without it.

Thanks anyways Birdy.
