MORE INFORMATION

The ability to obtain access to sub-folders on HPFS volumes from 16-bit programs was implemented as a Design Change Request for Windows 95 OEM Service Release 2. For additional information about this modification, please see the following article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

If the modification from Q183493 has not been implemented on a Windows 95-based computer, you may receive an "access denied" error message when you try to create a sub-folder on an HPFS volume from a 16-bit program.
