SUMMARY
This information applies to both Microsoft DoubleSpace and Microsoft DriveSpace. For MS-DOS 6.22, use DRVSPACE in place of DBLSPACE for commands and filenames.



SYMPTOMS
After removing MS-DOS DoubleSpace, you may receive the following error message:

You cannot access any DoubleSpace drives because the DoubleSpace driver, DBLSPACE.BIN, is not installed.



CAUSE
This error is generated if DoubleSpace fails to remove any DEVICE=C:\DOS\DBLSPACE.SYS commands from your CONFIG.SYS file. This situation typically occurs if you have followed the sequence below.


 * 1) Installed MS-DOS 6.0.
 * 2) Installed DoubleSpace.
 * 3) Installed MS-DOS 6.2.
 * 4) Uncompressed your DoubleSpace drives.
 * 5) Removed MS-DOS 6.2.



RESOLUTION
To work around this situation, edit your CONFIG.SYS file and remove all DEVICE=C:\DOS\DBLSPACE.SYS commands.

Additional query words: 6.20 uninstalling
