SYMPTOMS
The Professional Edition of Microsoft Visual Basic for MS-DOS, on 1.44 Megabyte 3.5-inch diskettes only, mistakenly includes an extra file named VBDOS.BAK on disk number 1. This extra file is simply a copy of the VBDOS.INF file used by the SETUP.EXE program.



RESOLUTION
The VBDOS.BAK file is incorrectly installed if you run the ALTSETUP.BAT alternate installation. After installation, you can safely delete the VBDOS.BAK file from your hard drive.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a bug in the Professional Edition of Microsoft Visual Basic version 1.0 for MS-DOS. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
