How do I find the shared folder for a download program?

Which program is it?

Limewire

And before anyone says anything, I am only downloading songs from an artist that I have permission from.

Haha no I have the same program, and I use it legally as well. You go to tools, options, and then sharing. =)

How can I make a shortcut of the folder on my desktop?

Copy the file directory name, then go to your desktop, rightclick, then click new, shortcut, and then use that address.

Using LimeWire is a save-and-share experience. Files download on the Gnutella network are placed in the Save folder and are individually shared with other users on the Gnutella network. Files in the Save folder other than those downloaded using LimeWire are not shared unless the Save folder is added to the list of Shared folders.
Any files that you would like to share on the Gnutella network that you did not download using LimeWire should be placed in the Shared folder. By default, the Save folder is different from the Shared folder. You can add, remove, or change which folders are shared. Once a folder is shared, all shareable files inside the folder are shared.

Thanks for summing up what a shared folder is, but that wasn't really the question..

It's the full name of that folder that is in your shared folder, something like C:\\Documents\limewire or something like that.

Thank you so much CHarlotte!!

Welcome! Good luck with your file sharing! =)
