TITLE :Addstor SSUTIL Utility Reports MS-DOS 6.0 as Version 5.0
--------------------------------------------------------------------
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft MS-DOS operating system version 6.0
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Summary:
The Addstor compression information utility, SSUTIL, incorrectly
reports the following information about MS-DOS version 6.0:
VERSION is MS-DOS 5.0
REPORTED version is 6.0
More Information:
SSUTIL looks at the boot record signature to determine the version of
MS-DOS. It then calls the GetMSDOSVersion() function to determine the
reported version number.
Because the boot record signature is the same for MS-DOS 5.0 and
MS-DOS 6.0, SSUTIL incorrectly reports the version number.
Note: The incorrect version number detection does not cause any
problems or incompatibilities between MS-DOS 6.0 and Addstor.
Additional reference words: 6.00
