Unloading TSRs Manually; Still Get TSR Support Message

 * }

Q59700

-

The information in this article applies to:


 * Microsoft Windows versions 3.0, 3.0a

-

If you run a TSR (terminate and stay resident) program, such as SideKick, in an MS-DOS virtual machine under Microsoft Windows version 3.0 enhanced mode and then unload the TSR and exit the virtual machine, you continue to receive the &quot;Windows TSR Support&quot; message even though the TSR has been unloaded.

This is because although there is a mechanism for Windows to determine if a TSR has been loaded, there is no way for Windows to tell if the TSR has been unloaded. Once it is loaded, a flag is set that a TSR is present. Thus, you receive the TSR support message even if you have unloaded the TSR manually.
