Windows 3.1 May Erroneously Offer the Tutorial as an Option

Last reviewed: November 21, 1994
Article ID: Q85239

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft Windows operating system versions 3.1, 3.11

SYMPTOMS

When you run Microsoft Windows Setup in custom mode on a machine that does not have an existing copy of Windows 3.1, you may be given the option to run the tutorial when it is not available.

CAUSE

If you choose not to install the Windows accessories, the tutorial files (WINTUTOR.*) will not be installed. If you then select the option to run the tutorial, Setup will continue as if you had elected to skip the tutorial.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Windows version 3.1. We are researching this problem and will post new information here as it becomes available.
