EThe path or parameter is incorrect.
IThe UNDELETE utility restores previously erased files on a
disk.
Syntax:
UNDELETE [drive:][path][filename] [/L or /S][/A][/F]
where:
drive:\path\filename Specifies the original location of the file
to be undeleted. (Wildcard characters are
allowed in the filename.)
/L Lists deleted files that are available to be
recovered.
/S Includes all files in the specified directory
and subdirectories.
/A Recovers all deleted files if they are still
present without prompting for confirmation.
/F Removes files so that they cannot be recovered.
EThe DELDIR environment variable for the specified drive is
missing or is incorrect.
IThere are no files to undelete on this disk. No previously
deleted files were found in the storage directory for the specified disk.
IAn error occurred while opening the control file. The error
occurred while attempting to open system control files in the temporary
storage directory for the specified disk.
EThis version of the control file is incorrect.
PDo you want to discard this file (Y/N)?
PDo you wish to undelete this file (Y/N)?
EThe file %1 cannot be undeleted.
EThe file %1 cannot be discarded.
IAn error occurred while reading the control file record for
a previously deleted file. The entry was ignored. The file will not
be processed.
ENo matching files were found.

I%1 is already installed.
I%1 bytes are available on the disk.
IAllocation failed or the specified buffer is too small.
The file is too large to fit on the disk or the buffer is too small.
Create more space on the disk or create a bigger buffer.
IBad device name. This device name is not a device
configured for this machine.
Update the appropriate system configuration files to add the
device or retry with different device name.
ICannot open list device PRN. The printer is not
available. Check the printer connection and retry the command
with the appropriate output device.

Program completed processing.
IThe drive specification in the command line argument is
incorrect. Correct the drive specified and retry the command.
IFile creation error. There is not enough room on the disk
to create the file. Either delete enough files to create room on the
disk or try to create the file on a disk with sufficient space.
IInsufficient space on disk. There is not enough disk space
to complete the command. Either delete enough files to create room on
the disk or try a different disk with sufficient space.
IDisk error reading drive %1. An error occurred reading the
drive. Retry the command. If this error continues to occur, try to
read a backup copy of the file.
IDisk error writing drive %1. The program was unable to
write to the specified drive. Check to make sure the drive letter is
correct and the path exists and then retry this operation.
IWrite-protect error writing drive %1. An attempt was made
to write to a write-protected disk. Disable the write protection and
retry the operation. If the diskette has been prepared using XDF, it must be reformatted.
I%1^ ErrorIError in EXE or HEX file. The EXE or HEX file may be
corrupted. Retry the command with a backup file.
IThe program will not allow writing to an EXE or HEX file.
Rename the file and retry on the new file name.
IWrite error. No destination path and filename were defined.
Provide the destination path and filename.
IParity error or nonexistent memory error detectedEither the memory location is bad or the location given in the
command is not available to the program. Check the location value
given in the command line and retry the command.

IThe handle created is %1.
ILogical page %1 is mapped to physical page %2.
IEMS hardware/software failure. A failure occurred during
allocation/deallocation reading or writing to expanded memory. Use
XS, XA, and XD to verify parameters and then retry the command.
IHandle specified does not exist or has been deleted. Retry
the command. If the handle is not found, create a new handle using
the XA command.
IInvalid function code.
INo free handles. There is a maximum number of handles that
can be allocated using the XA command. Use the XD command to
deallocate expanded memory so that a handle becomes available and
then issue the XA command.
IAn error occurred while doing a save or restore of a page
in expanded memory. Retry the command. If the same error occurs, use
the XD command to delete the expanded memory pages and then retry.
ITotal number of pages exceeded using the XA command. Retry
the command specifying less pages to allocate.
IFree pages exceeded. The XA command has been specified
with more free pages than are available. Retry the command with a
smaller number of pages specified or use the XD command to deallocate
pages and then retry the XA command.
IAn illegal or out-of-range parameter was used for the
command. Validate the parameters and retry the command.
IPart or all of the range of the command falls outside the
logical page. Issue the command with a different range or map the
page, view it, and then retry it with a new range.
IPart or all of the range parameter of the command is outside
the physical page. Issue an XS command to view the frame segments,
then issue the original command with a valid range.
EA hardware configuration error has been found.
IThe save area is not in use.
EA software or hardware error occurred while processing the
EMS command. Try one of the following:
o Retry the command.
o Retry the command with new parameters.
IThere is at least one missing or invalid EMS command
parameter. Use the XS command to verify parameters are present.
Reset the parameters and retry.
