Don't press the button to clear inactive. Unless you want to.

What it does is remove them from the downld window so you'll no longer have them as options to downld. To replace them, go to LW's Library window, select incomplete folder & select files & press resume button.

The "Clear Inactive" means you have an inactive file in your download window. When a file finishes d/ling it becomes inactive, also if a file goes to awaiting sources it is inactive. If the file was complete it will be in your LW library. If the file was awaiting sources it should be in the "incomplete files" folder in the LW library and you should be able to resume it by right clicking it and clicking "resume".

Just a nose in front. But 6_pac's answer is better.
