Instead of using add/remove to install it, please just run the setup

The Kermit 95 terminal/command screen runs in a Windows 95 console window.
Do you have your console windows configured for full screen?
Directions for obtaining the 1.1.1 patch were posted to this list a while
back; they are reproduced below.

What kind of modem do you have? What kind of modem did you tell Kermit
that you have? Did you read the file DOCS\MODEMS.DOC? It explains how to
alter modem configurations and add new modems.

Kermit 95 presently does not work with Trumpet Winsock. Version 1.1.2,
which will be announced shortly (as a patch) should address this problem
but only for the new 32-bit Winsock. Kermit 95 does not interface with
any 16-bit Winsock package.
Patch 1:
Version 1.1.1 of Kermit 95, available to current users of Kermit 95 as a
patch: You may download the patch from our BBS or you can ftp in binary
mode from the Internet Kermit archive:
ftp://kermit.columbia.edu/kermit/k95/patches/*
To apply Patch Number 1:
. Make a backup copy of your Kermit 95 directory. This is not only a
safety precaution in case something goes wrong (it shouldn't), but also
because future patches might have to be applied to the 1.1 base version.
. Ftp the following files to your PC's Kermit 95 directory in
binary mode:
w110-111.rtp
w110-111.rtd
patch.exe
. While cd'd to your Kermit 95 directory, type the following command:
patch w110-111.rtp
. Check afterwards that your K95DIAL.EXE and K95.EXE files operate correctly,
that the bugs mentioned above are fixed, and that none of the files that
you might have customized (such as K95CUSTOM.INI or DIALUSR.DAT) have been
altered.
After applying the patch, read the BUGS.DOC file for details about the bugs
that were fixed by this patch, and known problems that are still outstanding,
as well as some frequently asked questions (and answers).
