Clear Inactive? What does this mean?
 
Hello All,
I'm sure this ? has been asked a multitude of times, but maybe someone can help a newby. I have my limewire running, and I have some items d/ling. There are also items that are queued, need more sources, connecting, or waiting for stable connection. These items are NOT being d/l at this time, and if I hightlight them and click the 'Clear Inactive' button, will they just disappear from my d/l window in Limewire, or does this action remove them from my library incomplete files, as well. Guess I'm not real sure about using this function, and what it actually does, as I don't want to have to re-search for these same songs, movies, etc, again.
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Crickkette

It will just remove them from the Download window; they will be still there in your Incomplete folder and will be loaded again at the next start up of LW or manually by yourself directly fr\om the Library>Incomplete..

All the "Clear Inactive" button does is clear your inactive downloads from your download screen, i.e. clearing out the clutter.

However, those files are still in your "Incomplete" folder, all you have to do is look in your Library. Also, those files can be restarted, just like normal incomplete files, all you have to do is press the "Resume" button.

What a timely reply~
I can't thank you both enough for your help. I will certainly feel better now about utilizing that button on Limewire.
Until soon,
Crickkette
