Thanks very much, Daniel

Hi Sami, I've now reinstalled Eraser. I've just searched again for the temp file you mentioned, to check it is installed correctly, but it still doesn't exist. I've just opened the MS-DOS prompt while in Windows and typed the "deltree" command which you mentioned. On pressing Enter, the prompt...

Thanks very much, Daniel

Thanks very much for your reply (sorry- I've only just noticed it). I have Windows 95. I am going to first try reinstalling Eraser (please see my post "Eraser Uninstaller Corrupted)".

Hi Sami, Thanks very much for your help. Daniel
