Then i can type win at the c prompt and it will boot. How do i correct this?Add 'win' to the end of the autoexec.bat<br/><br/>That... or upgrade to something newer Could you explain the how to in adding the WIN a little more. This comp has some programs on it that will only run on 95 and they have been <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/lost-537630" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about LOST">LOST</a> several moves ago.<br/>ThanksIt's been a while, but I believe the Autoexec.bat file was located in C:\ for Windows 95.<br/><br/>Anyway, when you get to the prompt 'C:\>' type:<br/><br/>Code: <a>[Select]</a>edit autoexec.bat<br/>In the file that opens, scroll down to the bottom of it and on a new line type:<br/><br/>Code: <a>[Select]</a>win<br/>Save the file, <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/restart-622780" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about RESTART">RESTART</a> your computer. Windows should now start automatically.I do that and I get a blue screen box that <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/says-1195457" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about SAYS">SAYS</a> MS DOS PROMPT EDIT at the top, <br/>and file, edit, search, view, options and help BELOW THAT AND A FLASHING CURSER in the blue screen. nothing else in it.95 and 98 didn't always create these files. When you go into Windows 95, search for the file. Chances are it doesn't exist.<br/><br/>If you create a new autoexec.bat in C:\ and just type 'win' in it, that should still fix your problem.a search in windows shows a autoexec.bat, I went back to the dos edit of autoexec.bat and clicked on the file tab and it comes up with the files, but not sure how to add the win to the end of the list, when i type it in it wants to go under the WELCOME.EXE <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/instead-248606" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about INSTEAD">INSTEAD</a> of at the last of the pageWhile in Windows open autoexec.bat with Notepad, and add "win" (no quotes) line.
