Limewire doesn't find "javaw.exe" and doesn't run properly

#1 (**permalink**) July 16th, 2001

Hi there,

I have problems with running Limewire 1.6, which I already downloaded
twice and which I installed on Win98. Installation works fine, both the java runtime environment and limewire. But when I doubleclick the icon, limewire searches for "javaw.exe"
but can't find it. If I search it manually, limewire starts, but doesn't
run properly.

I would be really thankful for any help you can give

Thanks a lot,

Stefan

Hi!

I deduct from your name, that you're using a non-English Windoes, just like I do.

Right-click the Limewire shortcut and select Properties. The command line in there starts with "C:\Program Files\...". If you have a non-English Windows, then this is wrong. You'll have to correct it, for example, on a German Windows system to "C:\Programme\..."

See also the thread "Installation Bug", that I just created.
