Some TSRs Moved from Autoexec.bat to Winstart.bat During Setup

 * }

Q134402

-

The information in this article applies to:


 * Microsoft Windows 95

-

SYMPTOMS
After installing Windows 95 on a computer running Btrieve, DaVinci Mail, or Microcom Carbon Copy, several terminate-and-stay-resident programs (TSRs) no longer appear in the Autoexec.bat file.

Your programs still function properly and the TSRs load into memory.

CAUSE
Windows 95 removes the TSRs for these programs from the Autoexec.bat file and places them in the Winstart.bat file.

STATUS
This behavior is by design.

MORE INFORMATION
Windows 95 moves the following TSRs to the Winstart.bat file:

Btrieve:

  Brequest.exe DaVinci Mail:

  Mhsblink Mhsalarm.exe Wks_nb.exe Microcom Carbon Copy:

  Doshost.exe Dosker The Winstart.bat file is used to load TSRs that are required for Windows- based programs and are not needed in MS-DOS sessions. You should not use the Winstart.bat file for setting environment variables.
