- *** INSTALLATION ***
-
- Installation with the SETUP program:
-
- If you received WinZip on a disk with the file SETUP.EXE, start
- the SETUP program as follows: insert the WinZip distribution disk
- in your floppy drive. From the Windows Program manager choose Run
- from the File menu, type a:\setup, and press the enter key.
-
- Installation without the SETUP program:
-
- WinZip is distributed on BBS systems without a SETUP program for
- faster downloads. If you received WinZip without the file
- SETUP.EXE, follow this easy one-time installation procedure:
-
- 1) Create a directory to hold the WinZip related files. The
- recommended directory name (used in the following instructions) is
- "C:\WINZIP".
-
- 2) Copy all WinZip-related files to this directory. At a minimum
- you need the following files: WINZIP.EXE, WZ.DLL, WZ.COM, WZ.PIF,
- and WINZIP.HLP.
-
- 3) Double click on C:\WINZIP\WINZIP.EXE in the File Manager.
-
- That's all there is installing WinZip. When WinZip is activated
- for the first time, a few one-time only dialog boxes are
- displayed.
-
- Remember that while WinZip is active, online help is always
- available by pressing the F1 key.
-
- >>> New Users: Please see the section titled <<<
