Word 5.00: Space Usage on Hard Disk

PSS ID Number: Q47439 Article last modified on 01-24-1995

5.00

MS-DOS

= SUMMARY =

Fully installed, Word 5.00 takes up about 3 megabytes (MB) on a hard drive. This includes the program files, dictionary, thesaurus, learn and help files, and all the supplied utilities and sample files. At the minimum, Word can function while taking up about 650K (of course, adequate room should be left for document files, temporary files, etc.).

= MORE INFORMATION =

The minimum files that are necessary to install on a hard drive to successfully run Word 5.00 are as follows:

Filename Ext Size Date R/O Description ——– — —- —- — ———–

Note: An “R” after the date indicates that Setup makes the file read-only after copying it to the hard disk. This is to prevent file-sharing conflicts under multitasking or multi-user environments. This attribute can be removed either with the DOS Attrib -R command or with the RDWRITE utility provided on the Utilities/Printers disk.
