Everytime I open Frostwire it creates a folder...
 
Hello, I've been using Frostwire for over a year now with no problems.

Recently I updated to the most recent version, (4.17.0) and now every time I open the program, it creates a folder named "Frostwire" in My Documents folder. I've configured my downloads folder to be in a totally different location so I don't know why it keeps creating this folder.

I use WinXP Pro, SP2 and Frostwire 4.17.0

Any ideas?

It inherited the trait from LimeWire 4.17.
I think it was meant for paid downloads,
a feature which hasn't been used yet..
It's harmless, though a bit annoying. http://www3.telus.net/Aaron_Walkhouse/tongue3.gif

... my documents in a folder called Frostwire, and are shared, incomplete, store purchased (which is a hangover from Limewire which should I think not be there) and shared.

I thought maybe there was a way to disable or correct this but oh well, maybe in the next version this won't happen.

I've deleted it countless times but as soon as I start the program, there it is again. Anyway, thanks for your answers!

It's annoying & doubt too many people use the Store process anyway. But for now cannot do much about it. However, you can change the location of the folder. Go to Tools -> Options -> Store & choose location. Put it somewhere out of view lol :D (my apologies I don't have the most recent FW version, I presume you have this option.)
