I go into the link AppName: limewire.exe AppVer: 1.0.0.2 ModName: ntdll.dll ModVer: 5.1.2600.2180 Offset: 00011639 I have used all the tips and tricks in the forums i could find removed limewire and Javascript reinstallled them both, redownloaded them. |

![]() The preferences of the new version of LW (4.10.x +) may be found in another location. Use your search function, go to options & change view mode to show "hidden" files & folders. Then search for limewire It's found here: C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\LimeWire The Application Data folder is "hidden". You can see an example of how to find & delete it from a FrostWire example here: How to delete your FrostWire Preferences folder But of course, it's the limewire folder you search & delete. Check that the one you select is from the above location (ie: within the Application Data folder!!!) And of course only do it whilst LW is "closed"! I will soon be adding some examples & details about this in the link Only A Hobo left. |

![]() Same problem, limewire worked fine before. Then my 9.whatever.. the new one stopped working. So I went to limewire.com and got the 10.0 version. That one also won't open. I've tried what you said.. but no results. Hope it gets fixed soon.. |

Yep my windows had an issue of missing or out of date dll so that link replaced it. FYI the page here has been updated with how to find the new LW 4.10+ preferences folder: Fixes for Limewire I'd been a little slow getting around to it ... well New Year's eve & the recovery period ... lol ![]() (A full week's recovery required! ![]() Steps 1-3 in that link 'should' fix it. If Java 1.5 doesn't do the trick, uninstall it & install Java 1.4.2 instead. Also consider reinstalling LW. But use the "Offline" installer. |
