Microsoft Windows for Workgroups version 3.11 does not ship with the Dr. Watson (DRWATSON.EXE) utility; however, if you upgrade Windows 3.1 or Windows for Workgroups 3.1 to Windows for Workgroups 3.11, Dr. Watson remains installed on your hard disk, however, its icon may no longer appear. If you created an icon for DRWATSON.EXE and placed it in one the Windows default program groups, such as the Startup group, the Dr. Watson icon is removed.

NOTE: Dr. Watson is included in Windows versions 3.1 and 3.11 and Windows for Workgroups version 3.1. It is not included with Windows 3.0 or Windows for Workgroups 3.11.
