DOCUMENT:Q158907 17-DEC-2000 [win95x] TITLE :Msbatch.inf Parameters: Installing Clipboard Viewer PRODUCT :Microsoft Windows 95.x Retail Product PROD/VER:95 OPER/SYS: KEYWORDS:win95 ====================================================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The information in this article applies to: - Microsoft Windows 95 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY ======= This article describes how to install Clipboard Viewer using the Msbatch.inf file for batch installations of Windows 95. MORE INFORMATION ================ Microsoft does not encourage or support changes to .inf files; therefore, Microsoft Technical Support does not support the procedure in this article. Although we have tested the following procedure and it appears to function as described, make a backup copy of your .inf file before you proceed. When you specify that Clipboard Viewer should be installed using the Msbatch.inf file, it is not installed. To work around this problem, follow these steps: 1. Make sure that the [OptionalComponents] section of the Msbatch.inf file contain "Clipboard Viewer"=1 instead of "Clipboard Viewer"=0. 2. Create or modify the Custom.inf file to include these entries: [Precopyfiles] clip.inf [load_inf] clip.inf The completed Custom.inf file should look similar to the following example. Your exact file may vary: [Version] LayoutFile=layout.inf Signature="$CHICAGO$" [Custom_Precopy] CopyFiles=PrecopyFiles [DestinationDirs] PrecopyFiles=2 [PrecopyFiles] clip.inf [load_inf] clip.inf ====================================================================== Keywords : win95 Technology : kbWin95search kbZNotKeyword3 Version : 95 ============================================================================= THE INFORMATION PROVIDED IN THE MICROSOFT KNOWLEDGE BASE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND.
