Works 95: Setup Changes Made to Win.ini (150216)

SUMMARY

The Works 4.0, 4.5, or 4.5a Setup program adds lines to the Win.ini file during a complete installation. The System Registry is also modified with these and additional entries. This article lists the changes.

Changes to Win.ini

The following information is for a complete installation of Works to the default locations specified by Works Setup. These default locations are:

C:\Program Files\Msworks

for all Works program files, and

c:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared

for shared components such as Draw and WordArt. The information may vary for network and/or custom installations. Also, the section headers may already exist for example the [embedding] section may begin with different lines if other programs using those components have been installed previously.

NOTE: Indented lines are continuations of the preceding line; there is no carriage return in the actual line in the Win.ini.

MORE INFORMATION

These lines are added to the Win.ini to allow Windows 3.1x programs to use the fonts and shared components installed by Works.

If you use the Remove All option in Works 4.0, 4.5, or 4.5a Setup, these lines are not removed from the Win.ini.

For more information about files and folders that are not removed during maintenance mode Setup and about files that are installed into folders other than the Works 4.0, 4.5 or 4.5a folder, see the following article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
