= SUMMARY =

When you run Works on a dual-floppy system with a write-protection tab on your Program disk, you will receive the message “Cannot access file: WORKS.INI” each time you exit Works.

The file WORKS.INI retains your Works program settings. If an .INI file is not currently available, Works will create one. If such a file already exists, Works will update the file upon exiting the program. This update adds any changes you have made to your program settings.

If you have a write-protect tab on the Program disk, Works cannot access the disk to create or update the WORKS.INI file. You need to remove the write-protect tab or accept the original WORKS.INI file by selecting Cancel.

Note: The same message will be received when running Works on a network if you do not have read/write privileges in the program directory.
