The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Windows Millennium Edition
This article was previously published under Q261809 SYMPTOMS When you are use the Accounting Made E-Z program from Made
E-Z Products to open System Editor on a clean installation of Microsoft Windows
Millennium Edition, the following error message appears and the program stops
after you click OK: The following program SYSEDIT.EXE is
missing from Windows or one of its sub-directories. This program is part of
Windows and NOT a part of this accounting program. As a courtesy for your ease
of use, this accounting program simply helps you to run SYSEDIT which is part
of Windows. Please re-install Windows to take advantage of this feature. If you
have questions about re-installing Windows, contact the Vendor you had
purchased this computer from or contact Microsoft. Please refer to your
Computer or Microsoft Windows documentation for telephone numbers to contact
these vendors. We do not provide technical support on these features.
CAUSE This behavior occurs because Sysedit.exe is not included
with Windows Millennium Edition. Accounting Made E-Z is designed to stop
running after failure of an attempt to launch an executable file that does not
exist within Accounting Made E-Z. STATUSMicrosoft
has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed
at the beginning of this article.
MORE INFORMATION You should receive an error message that indicates System
Editor is not available, but Accounting Made E-Z should not shut down. The
System Editor (Sysedit.exe) is not installed with Windows Millennium Edition,
but it is available if the installation was an upgrade from an operating system
that did include System Editor.
