- I need to recover some disk space and went to remove Microsoft C++
- from my Windows 3.1. system. I removed it as followed:
-
- 1) deleted group icon
- 2) deleted MSVC files
- 3) commenting out MSVC references in WIN.INI
-
- When I boot my system I get the following messages:
-
- Cannot find a device file that may be needed to run Windows in
- 386 enhanced mode
-
- You need to run the Setup program again
- C:\MSVC\BIN\dosxnt.386
- Press any key to continue
-
-
- I was not lost in that I had a current tape backup and did a full
- restore
- of my environment. How can I remove Microsoft Visual C++ again and
- not get this message (what did I do wrong)?
