-

The information in this article applies to:


 * Microsoft Windows 95

-

SYMPTOMS
If you run Tabworks in Windows 95 and set it as the shell, and then try to return to the normal Windows 95 shell, Tabworks sets Program Manager as the shell.

CAUSE
Tabworks changes the "shell=" line in the System.ini file. The normal shell for Windows 95 is Explorer.exe, but Tabworks set the shell to Progman.exe.

RESOLUTION
To return to the normal Windows 95 shell, use any text editor (such as Notepad) to edit the System.ini file. Modify the "shell=" line so that it reads:

  shell=explorer.exe After you make this change, save and then close the file, and then restart Windows 95.
