  • Microsoft Windows operating system versions 3.1, 3.11

SUMMARY

The Windows Resource Kit (WRK) for version 3.1 has been updated. The WRK Setup program has been revised, two of the readme (.WRI) files have been removed, and new online documentation has been included. The hard copy documentation did not change.

New Setup Program

The WRK Setup program has been revised. The earlier version of Setup placed all of the WRK files in one directory. The new Setup program places files into three separate subdirectories. For example, if you specify C:\WRK for your destination directory, the utilities are placed into C:\WRK\UTIL, the readme files (.WRI file) are placed in C:\WRK\README, and the new online documents (white papers) are placed into C:\WRK\WHITEPPR.
