Unhappy Won't start up

I recently purchased Limewire Pro and everything has been fine until to-day.
Now, to put it simply, Limewire won't start up. Anyone any ideas ?
I recently defragemented my Hard-Drive and deleted some files and folders as well as one or two programmes's that I don't use in order to gain more freespace.

Reinstall Java. Use the JRE offline installer & remove your old version of Java before you install the new one.

Delete LW's preferences folder. See point 3 below. If you've used LW versions older than 4.9.34, you could have a folder in point 2's location as well.
Fixes for LimeWire
After deleting that folder, you'll have to go back & reset all of your LW options.

If it's still no good, right click on the LW icon & change compatibility...see if that helps.

Thumbs up Starting Connection

When I say 'won't start up' I should have said stuck on 'starting connection' but to-day, low and behold, back to Turbo-Charged connection.
