2 methods of uninstalling LW:
1. Go to start menu > Programs > LW > Uninstall.
2. Reinstalling LW will uninstall the previous version.

You should definitely run ccleaner to be sure registry keys are cleaned up after you used the add/remove control panel.

Ok, I will do that! One other thing though... this LimeWireOther folder is still on my desktop. Do I have to leave it there? I thought I could trash it once it was installed?

You can move it to your programs folder if you like. Remember there was no installation. So deleting it would be deleting the program. You can get rid of the .zip file however. Make a shortcut of the program & put that on your desktop or wherever.

Wow, I didn't know you could run a program on a PC without installing it! LOL... reminds me of the Mac I used to have. Uh, I liked my Mac much better :wink:

Thanks so much for all the help. I REALLY appreciate it. This forum is a Godsend!

All those fixes wont work. I think file sharing as we knew it is gone forever. It was just a matter of time. No more free lunches.
