Microsoft Windows operating system versions 3.1, 3.11

SUMMARY

When you install the MBI Legacy word processor version 1.1 from Windows File Manager by choosing Run from the File menu and then pressing the ENTER key or choosing the OK button, the following error messages appears:

   Cannot Open Setup.inf

   Cannot find section in the setup file

If the error messages are ignored, then the installation hangs the computer. This behavior does NOT occur if you double-click the SETUP.EXE file or choose Run from Program Manager's File menu.

This problem was corrected in Legacy version 2.0.
