Setup Does Not Give You a Directory Choice (62788)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Windows 3.0
- Microsoft Windows 3.0a
- Microsoft Windows 3.1
- Microsoft Windows 3.11
This article was previously published under Q62788 SYMPTOMS
The Windows Setup program goes directly to the system configuration
screen without letting you specify a directory when the WINVER.EXE
file is in the directory from which you are running Setup.
This is usually only a problem if you are doing a SETUP /N from a
network directory that has the WINVER.EXE file on it.
CAUSE
Setup doesn't give you a directory choice because it assumes that
Windows is already installed if WINVER.EXE exists.
WORKAROUND
To correct this problem, delete the WINVER.EXE file before you run
Setup. The file is re-created in the proper directory after Setup is
run.
