Default Lost Audio Files

Hello Ironhorse 666,

Thanks for your response, I don't seem to be able to find this EXPLORE button you suggested I push!! I use Microsoft, I attempted this a few weeks ago, just simply searching in the Limewire folder on My Computer and it was empty, I downloaded some songs the other night to attempt to start over, and when I go into the Library option on Limewire today and check for my Saved Files, it's empty again!! so I have to wonder if there is an issue with this Limewire and I can't find my music since I know I saved over 20 songs on Thursday. I hope they are still there just hidden somewhere...

So I have to ask again do I go to My Computer to find this Program Files you mentioned? where exactly do I find this Program Files? Once I get that I hope I am good to go, I can't remember all the music I had saved it was about 200 songs, I will be screwed if I can't retrieve them.

your steps are clear but I just can't find the options you suggested.

HELP!!!

Hi Ironhorse 666

One more thing I forgot to mention, when I go into the Incomplete File on Limewire that shows the downloads that didn't complete, there are a bunch of files in it of songs that didnt fully download, hopefully that means that my completed files are somewhere hidden in my computer, since those files didnt' seem to get deleted.

Thanks.
