Default Incomplete folder?

I have limewire 4.10.9 and don't know how to specify where I want incompleted files. It keeps putting the folder in my one directory and I don't know how to change it. Any help would be great.

the incomplete file is created i the same directory as your saved file folder.

So, to change the location of the incomplete folder, just change the location of your Save Folder in the options.

Hmm, I tried it and it still doesn't move the folder. I vaguley remember in the older version being able to specify where the incomplete folder went... Is that no longer availble?

The old Incomplete folder will not be moved, but a new one should be created in the location of the new Saved folder. This can result in a number of Incomplete folders on the hard drive.

I vaguely recall the option to set the location of the Incomplete folder, but am not sure it that was LW, or some other p2p program.

Default incomplete folder will not relocate

OSX 10.3.9 user. I change preferences for saving files location from my desktop to inside my hard drive and it is still creating a new incomplete folder on the old location on my desktop.
Now I have 2.

Help.

It is supposed to be created in the new saved folder location but NOT!!

AFAIK from trialling it out, the incomplete folder tends to follow the Audio folder. That seems to be the magnet for the incomplete folder. How to Change download location (click on link). You may find that you have 2 incomplete folders but one is the old one & if you moved the downld location totally for all file types then the old incomplete folder will be empty. The new one is where the new incompletes will go. Try it out. I think you'll find the incompletes will go to the new incomplete folder.
