SYMPTOMS

APPSTART.EXE is a Windows utility provided with LAN Manager 2.2. It simplifies launching network applications from the Windows desktop by automatically connecting and disconnecting the network share(s) where applications reside.

When you run WordPerfect 6.0 for Windows through APPSTART.EXE with:

  • MS-DOS 5.0, 6.0, or 6.2
  • LAN Manager 2.2
  • Windows version 3.1
  • Windows for Workgroups 3.1 or 3.11

you receive this error message when you exit from WordPerfect 6.0:

WFWIN20 caused a segment load failure in the module MFWIN20.EXE at 0008:041E

After the error message the system hangs. This happens only when you exit the program after starting it with APPSTART.EXE. Otherwise, WordPerfect for Windows 6.0 works correctly.

CAUSE

Under investigation.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Appstart version 1.0. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
