HOW WinSafe98 WORKS
SETUP
NETWORKS
If you want to install WinSafe98 on a network, please contact the Wolf Agencg
to obtain an administrator. Clients can be disabled, set for auto backup and
controlled by the server.
HOW TO INSTALL WinSafe98
READ THE FILE INSTALL.HTM FOR COMPLETE INSTRUCTIONS
If you are reading this you have already downloaded and unzipped all the
needed files for the successful installation of WinSafe98.
To install:
Double-click on the program SETUP.EXE to run the setup program.
Watch the TASKBAR. If an MSDOS window stays open please close it and continue.
Follow the on screen instructions. The install wizard will guide you through
the entire process. On most systems, it will take less than 5 minutes.
WAIT TIME
WinSafe98 can not read files that are in use; it must WAIT until
Windows 95/98 is loaded before it runs. If you receive an error notice
during startup (bootup) after installing new programs, or after setting up
WinSafe98, you may need to adjust the wait time. WinSafe will do this for
you if the Registry is in use. If the file that is in use is not the Registry
then you will need to adjust the Wait Time manually. This may take up to 10
reboots to Windows to get the WAIT TIME adjusted properly.
NOTE: The Wait Time value is not in seconds it read at processor speed.
If you have IE 4.0 or higher on your system, you may have to reset the
WAIT TIME when you first install WinSafe98 to 17. If you have not
selected this option during setup and you get a message box after every
boot telling you the Registry has changed and you should backup, then click
on Check Registry Size. WinSafe98 will tell you if an error has occurred; or
tell you the size of the current Registry and the size of the Registry
WinSafe98 has in it's backup. This means that during bootup, some files are
still in use that WinSafe98 needs to read. After adjusting the WAIT TIME
WinSafe98 will make internal adjustments the next time you boot to Windows
if you have set the Wait Time to high or if the Registry is still in use.
The preset Wait value is 11 when you install WinSafe98. A value of less
then seven may cause WinSafe98 not to be able to read the Registry. If Wait
is set too low, you get a message box at EVERY bootup that the Registry has
changed. Click on Check Registry Size. If you get a message box saying that
an error has occurred then Wait is set too low.
Increasing the number will cause a longer Wait and decreasing it will
shorten the Wait Time. WinSafe98 must wait until the Registry is loaded and
all programs (example: virus scanners) have started booting into Windows.
If you get a message window saying that a file is still in use see TESTING
in this help file.
REBOOTING
If you system reboots when trying to access the Hardware utility on the
WinSafe98 Interface you may need to reinstall Windows. Some mismatched DLL
files that have been installed by other programs usually cause this problem.
If you elect to reinstall you need not format first or use the restore
feature from your manufactures CD. While Windows is reinstalling you will
be prompted that the file being copied is older then the one on your system.
It is recommended that you select the older file. You can update that file
later. BE SURE to uninstall IE40 before reinstalling Windows, you can
reinstall it later.
TESTING
Testing is used when you have installed a program that WinSafe98 can not
read. The message is File in use. You will receive this error message at
bootup.
To fix the problem use The START TEST
On the menu bar click on SETUP then START TEST. If the exception list is
full, WinSafe will ask if it should clear it. Answer yes and it will
rebuild it.
Then Reboot, after rebooting if the file still is in use increase the
Wait Time by 5. Then try rebooting again and repeat the process.
FREE DISK SPACE
The free disk space may change each time you start WinSafe98. This is due
to the size of your swap file in use. If during the course of a session,
your free disk space decreases more than 30 Megs and you have not saved new
files or added much information to your system, then you probably have a
memory leak. WinSafe98 reads the free disk space only once upon access to
the WinSafe98 interface. WinSafe98 can only report free space up
to 2,147,155,968 bytes. If you should ever notice that the Free Space
suddenly drops in large amount of disk space you FAT is messed up.
You need to run Scandisk. Example: lets say you have 1,543,200,338 Free
Space when you first start up your computer, then by the end of the day you
notice that WinSafe98 is reporting 889,233 or something like this. You have
a FAT problem. You should make repairs NOW before rebooting. Simply run
scandisk.
BUTTONS
PICTURE of SAFE:
If you click on the little Safe in the lower portion of the WinSafe
interface you will disable WinSafe98 from performing any tasks. You can
now click on any button or Menu Item and WinSafe98 will describe to you
what the button or Menu Item does and how to use it. To enable WinSafe98
click on the Safe a second time.
ANTI VIRUS:
This option provides access to the MS virus scanner and is set to verify
files in the event of a crash. Verifying files means that it will report
files that have changed their Checksums. Use this button to check for a
virus or to find if a file (DLL or exe, sys, or COM) as been replaced or
corrupted.
BACKUP CURRENT FILES:
This button will allow WinSafe98 to backup all your vital files. If
WinSafe98 tells you that your Registry or system files have changed and
you computer is not performing properly ignore the message to backup until
you have fixed your system. To save a newer version of Vmm32.vxd use the
Menu Item Save Vmm32 first and then click on Backup Current Files.
BOOTLOG:
This button will search the bootlog file for failed to load files due to
corruption, missing files or conflicts. You can replace the corrupted files
or edit the Registry to fix these files.
CHECK REGISTRY:
Will tell you the size of the Registry in bytes as of the last bootup that
WinSafe98 logged (by using the Set Boot Option) and the size of the current
backup Registry. If you click yes to the message window the file Detail
Report will be displayed.
DEFRAGMENT:
This selection accesses the DEFRAG utility which defragments your files.
Fragmented files are scattered all over the hard drive. This condition
slows your computer. Running DEFRAG reassembles defragmented files into
contiguous sectors. This generally speeds up your computer. You should run
defrag at least once a week.
EDIT SYSTEM:
This selection accesses the system files for editing. You can access the
Win.ini, System.ini, Autoexec.bat, Config.sys, Protocol.ini, and MSMail.ini.
CAUTION: Improper editing of some of these files may cause problems.
EDIT REGISTRY:
This selection accesses the Registry for editing. CAUTION: Editing this
file incorrectly may crash Windows. WinSafe98 can rescue you from a
corrupted Registry. If you edit the Registry be sure to reboot before
attempting to backup.
EXTRACT:
This selection searches for and extracts a file from the Windows 95/98
cabinet files. It can also extract any file from any cabinet file.
FILE REPORT:
This selection commands WinSafe98 to inspect your system and compare it
with the system information it collected when you last successfully booted
to Windows. WinSafe98 will then tell you what files have been changed,
added or deleted. The last report may be viewed any time with View File
Report. These feature checks system files including all the Ini files in
the Windows folder.
HARDWARE:
This utility will list all the information that you will need for
diagnosing a hardware problem. It can be set to view those devices with
problems only. It will display all class items and describe the fault with
the hardware item. This will make it easier to repair then using the Device
Manager.
If you setup a Generic printer, text only, you can print the file the
hardware utility creates to the Winsafe directory and save as
"Hardware.prn". WinSafe will then add a Menu Item to the Files list for
easy access.
MSD:
This button accesses the MSD utility, a diagnostic tool, used to diagnose
problems with Windows 95/98 hardware, system files, Com ports, networks and
more. This file is available on your CD. If you do not have a CD, you can
download the file from the Internet. If MSD starts twice when you click the
MSD button you will need to remove the File MSD.exe located in Windows or
Windows\Command folder. If you download this file be sure to expand the file
MSDzip.exe first then copy just the file MSD.exe to the WinSafe folder.
Make sure that you only have one copy of MSD.exe on your computer, or
Windows will run two copies at a time. Coping this file to WinSafe does
many things, mainly if you are in Msdod mode you need not be going back and
forward to the Windows folder to find the problems in a crash. Every thing
will be available at the WinSafe prompt.
REPAIR SYSTEM FILES:
Use this button to repair errors received at boot up that system files have
been changed. This will install the original system DLL and drv files. This
will also restore the Vmm32.vxd file.
REPAIR SYSTEM ICONS:
This will restore you icons. Use this when your icons become unassociated
or they are displayed incorrectly.
RESTORE WITH CURRENT:
This button will allow WinSafe98 to replace all your vital files with
WinSafe98's backup files. You can use this feature to aid in uninstalling a
program that was registered in system files if you have not backed up since
the installation of the program you wish to remove. To restore the Vmm32.vxd
file use the Repair System Files button.
RESTORE WITH CURRENT
is the FIRST utility to use if your Registry becomes corrupted.
RESTORE FROM SAFE:
Use this feature when you have accidentally backed up with a corrupted
Registry. This will install an earlier version of the system files. You
should update the files in the Safe about once a month by using the Menu
Item Save Old Configuration.
RESTORE FROM SAFE is the utility to use if RESTORE WITH CURRENT fails.
RESTORE WITH ORIGINAL:
This feature should only be used as a last resort in correcting the system.
This will install the Registry that was created the last time you installed
Windows 95/98. This feature is only available if you have not deleted the
needed file.
SCANDISK:
This button accesses Scandisk, used to repair errors and unlocks your hard
drive.
SYSTEM INFO:
This Microsoft utility will display system information about running
modules, memory, processor, printer info, and much more. TIP: At a time
when your system is running well, print a copy of this report for future
reference.
SYSTEM REPORT:
This feature will create a report from the VIRUS SCANNER, MSD, and the
BOOTLOG all combined for easy viewing and comparison with the report
generated the day you installed WinSafe98. The original report can be
viewed by selecting the Menu Bar Item Files and then View System Report.
This feature is very useful when you are experiencing problems or just for
a check up of you system. You will be able to view all the changes on your
computer by comparing the original report and the current report.
Also read the MSD section. Contains information needed if you run into any
problems using this button.
If you setup a Generic printer, text only, you can print this report file
to the Winsafe directory and save as "System.prn". WinSafe will then add a
Menu Item to the Files list for easy access.

RESTORE
RESTORE:
This Menu Item is the same as RESTORE WITH CURRENT button. Use it when your
mouse is not working, you can use your keyboard. This will allow WinSafe98
to replace all your vital files with WinSafe98's backup files. You can use
this feature to aid in uninstalling a program that was registered in system
files if you have not backed up since the installation of the program you
wish to remove.
RESTORE WITH CURRENT is the FIRST utility to use if your Registry
becomes corrupted.
RESTORE FROM SAFE:
Use this feature when you have accidentally backed up with a
corrupted Registry. This will install an earlier version of the system files.
RESTORE FROM SAFE
is the utility to use if RESTORE WITH CURRENT fails.
RESTORED FROM DOS:
This command is only used after you have restored from the DOS prompt
using either the WinSafe or the WinSafe1 command and you are still in
Safe Mode but wish to install the Autoexec.bat and the Config.sys files.
You would only use this command if your Autoexec.bat or Config.sys file
contains some information that is required by your system to operate.
WinSafe98 once rebooted to Windows successfully will detect the Restoration
and attempt to make the needed repairs. You may also use this command if you
have selected the Boot Option Stop Boot.
SAVE OLD CONFIGURATION:
If you click on this Menu Item, the next time you use the Backup Current
Files button you will save the current backup files to the SAFE. These
files will be used if you choose the Restore From Safe feature or if you
crash and need the WinSafe1 command at the DOS prompt. WinSafe98 will tell
you when these files were last updated.
CLEAR CONFIGURATION SETTINGS:
This will remove the setting you set using the Save or Install Old
Configuration commands. This will stop Winsafe from saving or installing
these files.
WINDOWS BOOT OPTIONS
This opens a window to show you and allow you to change the way Windows
boots up.
SAVE VMM32:
This command will allow you to backup the VMM32.vxd file
(Virtual Memory Driver) the next time you Backup Current Files.
This file only needs to be updated if Winsafe tells you that the
file has changed. It is also wise to reboot a few time to insure
that you system is operating correctly and create and review a new
bootlog before backing up this file.
REINSTALL Windows 95/98:
WinSafe98 will reinstall Windows 95/98 using your cabinet files. This
feature is also available at the DOS prompt See the Restore text. You must
have the cabinet files and Setup program on your hard drive or on diskettes,
as WinSafe98 does not load the CD drivers. To use this feature with your
Windows 95/98 CD, you must have a Startup diskette first that loads your CD
drivers. This driver disk usually comes with a new computer or new after
market CD. If this feature was not enabled at the time you installed
WinSafe98 then you may enable it at any time by clicking on this button.
SETUP
SETUP TEXT:
This option accesses the installation instruction file; Install.htm Here
you will also find information needed to adjust the WAIT TIME at startup.

This opens the Audio and Video Control Panel for setting system
configurations.
BACKING UP
Everything is working fine when you get the message Backup Complete after
backing up with no error messages.
After WinSafe98 has been successfully installed and setup, WinSafe98 will
tell you that you need to backup your files, whenever a system file changes.
You can check this by clicking the Check Registry size. Backup if the
Registry size is changed.
Also see Wait Time
Backup your files immediately after startup when prompted. Do this
before installing anything or accessing any programs. NOTE: if you have
recently installed a new program, delay backing up for one or two boot
ups to insure that your new software is working and the system is stable.
WinSafe98 will only let you backup all your files once after each Windows
startup. If you wish to backup a second time, you must restart your computer
first. This is to insure that you do not save corrupted files.
ERROR MESSAGES
If you receive an error message after WinSafe98 has been setup read the
Setup text file. If the error message is File Still In Use see Testing.
If the testing process does not fix the error, see #3 below.
If you receive error message during startup (rebooting) read the WAIT TIME
section. If the Wait time adjustment does not eliminate the error, read #3
below.
Some files that have no attributes are in use by Windows at all times.
If you locate the file in the Explorer and right click it and select
Properties you may find that the only attribute check is Archive.
If this is the case and you have already done the test with WinSafe98
then you will need to edit the WinSafe.ini file. Add the file name in
capital letters to the [FILES] section. Replace an available
(1 - 10 =1 is available) line with the file name. example: 2=SYSTEM.TXT
RESTORING
Restore only if you have a problem or you installed some program that you
want to remove and did not back up since installation of that program.
Alternatively, you may use the INSTALL OLD CONFIGURATION command. To
restore files in SAFE MODE or a lockout read the Restore Text. To help
fix the problem you should read the Restore text as it will help you
diagnose what the fault is.
RESTORE REGISTRY
If you find yourself in Windows and a message box telling you to restore
DO NOT CLICK ON THE BUTTON yet. If you click this button now without copying
the System.da0 and the User.da0 from the WinSafe directory to the Windows
directory you may be installing a corrupted Registry again. WinSafe98 will
rename your Windows System.da0 and User.da0 (these are the Windows backup
copies) then restore with WinSafe. WinSafe will replace both the Registry
and the Backup files. After you have restored with WinSafe reboot. After
reentering Windows 95/98, the registry box may still be there. Now you can
click on the Restore from backup that Windows is displaying.
Once Windows displays this message box it remembers and thinks that you
did not restore. It will display this message until you click on the button
and reboot.
If you restore the Registry and Windows 95/98 wants to come in Safe Mode
try to choose Normal. If you come in under Safe Mode and if there is a
message box that tells you to restore from Windows backup click on it.
Windows will be copying the files you just restored with to the Registry.
This will do nothing accept make Windows happy.
Note: When you restore the Registry with a file with a large byte size
difference, Windows sees this as a corrupted Registry. After rebooting
Windows will prompt you to restore with its backup files. WinSafe has
already replaced both the Windows backup of the Registry and the Registry.
Windows 95/98 may display the message box after rebooting a few times.
If after at least three times the problem persists, you will need to
install an earlier version of the Registry. You will n then did to use
the Restore From Safe.
HOW WinSafe98 WORKS
WinSafe98 uses an installation program that sets up its' own directory;
backs up all your vital files and then hides them with attributes so that
you may not be able to see them. WinSafe98 also placed additional backup
files in the "Safe" when you installed it. The Safe is a hidden subdirectory
of Winsafe. In the Safe is a copy of the Registry, Win.ini file and your
System.ini. WinSafe98 will never replace these files unless you request
SAVE OLD CONFIGURATION. They are placed here for you to use if you should
ever backup with corrupted files.
WinSafe98 also takes a picture of your system and saves the current
information in a log. The information is stored until you restart your
computer again and replaced with a new log. This log will not be replaced
if you boot into Windows in Safe Mode. If you use the RELOG command
WinSafe98 will start a new log.
To view changes made to your system since you last booted to Windows
click on the FILE REPORT button and when WinSafe98 finishes reviewing
the log and your current system it will display the information. You can
then see if any changes were made to your system files since you last
booted into Windows successfully. This may take a minute or two.
What Is the Safe?
The Safe is a hidden directory that you may view only if you have selected
the option in the Explorer under View/Options. This directory contains four
files that were placed there when you last installed WinSafe98. These are
the files that are installed if you select RESTORE FROM SAFE these files
can also be updated by selecting Save Old Configuration.
GLOSSARY
Compressed Drive: Under Windows 95/98, a COMPRESSED drive is a virtual
drive whose data resides in a file that is located on a HOST drive. This
file is called drvspace.###, where ### is a number like 001. The virtual
drive may appear in My Computer as any drive you choose, including the
C: drive. Use the MSWindows 95/98 program Drivespace3 to create and manage
compressed drives.
Crash: A term used to reference the various causes of a computer or one of
its components, to fail or refuse to operate. Most simple problems with a
program or device can be fixed by simply rebooting the computer or clicking
on a First-Aid type Fix-It button. Serious physical problems such as fire or
head crashes usually require component replacement.
In between are the Windows 95/98 OS problems that occur when an important
system file becomes corrupt that does not fix itself by simply rebooting.
This is where WinSafe98 comes to the rescue.
Empty Drive: An empty drive is like a compressed drive with one important
difference. An empty drive is not compressed. Like a compressed drive it is
a virtual drive whose data resides in a file that is located on a HOST drive.
For all practical purposes, it is a drive partition.
Menu Bar Item: The words that are at the top of the interface, Files,
Restore, Setup, Utilities, and Help.
Menu Item: The item list found under each of the Menu Bar words.
OS (System): The special software that enables all your hardware and other
software to communicate is called the Operating System (OS). WinSafe98 was
created to protect your Operating System (Windows 95/98) from software
disaster. It is also simply referred to as the system.
Taskbar & Tray: The graphical device on the Windows 95/98 desktop with the
Small Windows Flag on the START Button.
The Tray is a small area near the Clock with tiny icons for Volume Control,
System agent and any number of other items, including, if you have them,
Background Virus Check, and other Utilities.
Windows: Windows is a loose term that can mean different things.
A Window is a graphical box that appears in a screen. It can feature
independent properties. In Windows 95/98 the screen is known as the desktop.
Windows 95/98 is the operating system of your computer. (Unless you have
DOS, Apple, Amiga, NT, OS2, UNIX, Linux or other OS.) Windows is the name
of the directory or folder in the Windows 95/98 OS that contains the files
needed to operate your computer
REMOVING FILES FROM VMM32
If you should ever need to remove a file from the VMM32 list, files that
the Extit Icon part of WinSafe reports as deleted you will need to edit the
WinSafe.ini.
You can do this on of two ways, first ways is to remove the file and its
size then lower the set number by one; or the easiest way to to remove the
entire [FOLDER] section then save the file, WinSafe will rebuild this
information with the files that now exist in the vmm32 folder.
