Location of MW.INI and Temporary Files in Network Word

= SUMMARY =

The initialization file, MW.INI is written to the current directory, which is the directory that is active when Network Word is started. This is the main reason why you should start Word from your own directory. Using another directory increases the risk of overwriting someone else’s MW.INI file.

The temporary files are also stored in the current directory. Word no longer deletes them on startup as in Version 2.00n. Instead, they are deleted at the end of the current Word session. This method reduces the risk of deleting the temporary files that another person is currently using.
