The following message occurs if your Windows installation is set up to run
on a Novell NetWare network.
Cannot run Swapfile when any other applications are running. To
use Swapfile, close all applications and start Swapfile again.
CAUSE
This message is generated because the NWPOPUP.EXE application is started in
the load= line of the WIN.INI file.
WORKAROUND
There are two possible workarounds to this problem as follows:
- Run the Control Panel's Network icon and execute the Disable
Broadcast Messages command. Close Control Panel and rerun
Swapfile.
-or-
- Edit the WIN.INI file by placing a semicolon in front of the load=
line and restart Windows in real mode and run Swapfile.
Once the Swapfile has been created, the NWPOPUP.EXE application may be
reactivated. Run the Control Panel's Network icon and execute the
Enable Broadcast Messages command or remove the semicolon in front of
the load= line in the WIN.INI file, depending on which method was used
to disable NWPOPUP.EXE.
