Default Shared file

hello,
recently i placed the SHARED folder which was in MyDocuments somewhere else, now whenever i open limewire or 360share pro, i get a message that says the program won't open bcoz the SHARED folder has been changed... i tried to put new folder called SHARED in the same directory.. i restored my system... reinstall the program but nothing worked.
is there any other way i can fix the problem ?!?
thx

With LimeWire open go to tools menu select share and point limewire to where the share folder is now located.

azazel,

Try deleting the LW preference folder, points 2, & 3, in this thread: Fixes for Limewire when LW isn't operating as it should!.

This will create a new shared folder in the default location. So you should be able to open LW and then you can follow Grandpa's suggestion to point LW to the new shared folder location.

It'll also change all your settings back to the default, so you'll have to set them back to how you had them.

*BTW - 360share pro is a ripoff of limewire. Get Pro from the official site: http://www.limewire.com/english/content/download.shtml
