The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Windows for Workgroups version 3.11

Microsoft Windows for Workgroups version 3.11 does not support standard mode. However, the standard mode video grabber files from previous versions of Microsoft Windows or Windows for Workgroups may remain on the computer after version 3.11 is installed, as these files are not updated or deleted by Windows for Workgroups Setup.

To increase available disk space, you can delete the standard mode grabber files from your hard disk. Standard mode grabber files typically have an extension of .GR2 or .2GR and are located in the Windows SYSTEM subdirectory.

NOTE: The active enhanced mode video grabber file is identified in the "386Grabber=" line of the SYSTEM.INI file [Boot] section. This file must remain in the Windows SYSTEM subdirectory for Windows or Windows for Workgroups to function properly.
