goto (unless you have changed it manually) your LIMEWIRE SHARED FOLDER this can be found in OPTIONS (limewire options) and under the shared folder tab, you move all music files to there

-OR-

Click "Explore" to open your shared folder white on the library tab, then drag all files you wish to be shared here


As another option, you can just change which folder is shared, for example you can set "My Music" as your shared folder - and point videos, programs and other media files to their own folders - this is all done in the options > shared folders through the lime wire client

If you still need help, let me know! I'll add pictures next time :P

i am wondering if i do a re install of limewire and allow it to search my entire pc for files to share, that would automaticly add them all to the limewire player/shared files? then i could delete the other files on my pc?

I wouldn't do that. LW saves the path of the files located on your computer, not the files itself. If you delete them after you have added them to share, they will be gone.....

I'd reckon you first pull all the files in one folder (that will help to get rid of those you have more than once), and this folder you add to the shared folders via LW>Tools>Options>Shared.

Windows Media Player can be used to search for all media, select the ones you want - move to a single folder then set that folder as shared folder

In the end, it doens't matter how you do it - as long as it gets done Haha!
