If you want other people to be able to download those files, you'll need to share them.

Click on p2p Network in LW's sidebar. Beside each file there's a box in the Share column. A tick in the box means that the file's being shared on the network for other people to download.

There are a few different ways that you can share files within a folder that you've just added to your library...

1. Drag folders into P2P Network. Find the folder on your computer & then drag it into LW's P2P Network.
