SYMPTOMS
In some situations, SETUP /E may fail, making a manual installation of the MS-DOS utilities (Microsoft Backup, Microsoft Anti-Virus and Microsoft Undelete) necessary.
WORKAROUND
To work around this problem, you must manually install the MS-DOS Utilities using the COPY and EXPAND commands.
The files to be expanded are shown with the destination filename to the right; all other files simply need to be copied from the MS-DOS Upgrade disks to the hard disk drive. All the files should be placed in the directory containing your MS-DOS files (usually C:\DOS).
Files required for the MS-DOS utilities:
MSBACKDB.OVL MSBACKDR.OVL MSBACKFB.OVL MSBACKFR.OVL MSBACKUP.EX_ MSBACKUP.EXE MSBACKUP.HL_ MSBACKUP.HLP MSBACKUP.OVL MSBCONFG.HL_ MSBCONFG.HLP MSBCONFG.OVL UNDELETE.EXE MSAV.EXE MSAV.HL_ MSAV.HLP MSAVHELP.OV_ MSAVHELP.OVL MSAVIRUS.LS_ MSAVIRUS.LST VSAFE.CO_ VSAFE.COM
Files required for the Windows-based utilities:
AV.GR_ AV.GRP BK.GR_ BK.GRP BKAV.GR_ BKAV.GRP BKUD.GR_ BKUD.GRP BKUDAV.GR_ BKUDAV.GRP WNTOOLS.GR_ WNTOOLS.GRP MWGRAFIC.DL_ MWGRAFIC.DLL MWBACKF.DL_ MWBACKF.DLL MWBACKR.DL_ MWBACKR.DLL MWBACKUP.EX_ MWBACKUP.EXE MWBACKUP.HL_ MWBACKUP.HLP VFINTD.38_ VFINTD.386 MWUNDEL.EX_ MWUNDEL.EXE MWUNDEL.HL_ MWUNDEL.HLP MWAV.EX_ MWAV.EXE MWAVABSI.DL_ MWAVABSI.DLL MWAVDLG.DL_ MWAVDLG.DLL MWAVDOSL.DL_ MWAVDOSL.DLL MWAVDRVL.DL_ MWAVDRVL.DLL MWAVMGR.DL_ MWAVMGR.DLL MWAVSCAN.DL_ MWAVSCAN.DLL MWAVSOS.DL_ MWAVSOS.DLL MWAVTSR.EX_ MWAVTSR.EXE VSAFE.CO_ VSAFE.COM
To use the Windows utilities, you must add the following line to the [386Enh] section of the SYSTEM.INI file:
Device=C:\DOS\VFINTD.386
Use the following steps to manually create the Microsoft Tools program group and each of the three program items:
- In Program Manager (be sure no other groups are open), choose New from the File menu, select Program Group, and choose OK.
- In the Program Group Properties dialog box, type Microsoft Tools in the Description box, leave the Group File box can empty, and then choose OK.
With the new Microsoft Tools group open, manually create the three utilities program items by choosing New from the File menu. For Program Item Properties, enter the following for each utility:
Microsoft Backup for Windows (MWBACKUP.EXE):DESCRIPTION Microsoft Backup for Windows COMMAND LINE C:\DOS\MWBACKUP.EXE WORKING DIRECTORY C:\DOS SHORTCUT KEY None
Microsoft Anti-Virus for Windows:
DESCRIPTION Microsoft Anti-Virus for Windows COMMAND LINE C:\DOS\MWAV.EXE WORKING DIRECTORY C:\DOS SHORTCUT KEY None
Microsoft Undelete for Windows:
DESCRIPTION Microsoft Undelete for Windows COMMAND LINE C:\DOS\MWUNDEL.EXE WORKING DIRECTORY C:\DOS SHORTCUT KEY None
