DOCUMENT:Q112209 05-NOV-1999 [pcmail] TITLE :PC Win: SHARE.EXE Not Added to Floppy Boot Disk PRODUCT :Microsoft Mail For PC Networks PROD/VER:WINDOWS:3.2 OPER/SYS: KEYWORDS: ====================================================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The information in this article applies to: - Microsoft Mail for Windows, version 3.2 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SYMPTOMS ======== A diskless workstation (running both Microsoft Windows and Microsoft Mail for Windows from the network) boots from a floppy disk containing the AUTOEXEC.BAT. The Mail for Windows setup program will attempt to modify the AUTOEXEC.BAT on drive C (even if no drive C is available) instead of the AUTOEXEC.BAT on drive A (the boot drive). NOTE: Multiple installations will result in the SHARE.EXE line being added to the C:\AUTOEXEC.BAT file multiple times. STATUS ====== Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in version 3.2 of Microsoft Mail for Windows. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
