WELCOME TO MIJENIX WIZMANAGER 2.5
***************************************************************
Thank you for using WizManager! WizManager is now better than
ever... and you'll see that it will transform your File Manager
into possibly the most powerful file management system
available in Windows.
****************************************************************
!!! IMPORTANT INSTALLATION NOTES, PLEASE READ !!!
****************************************************************
REGISTERED users of WizManager, please read the section of this
file explaining how you can obtain a FREE upgrade to version
2.5.
IF YOU ENCOUNTER ANY PROBLEM DURING OR AFTER THE INSTALLATION,
PLEASE NOTIFY MIJENIX. WE WILL TRY TO IDENTIFY AND CORRECT THE
PROBLEM. Mijenix's address can be found at the end of this file.
-> WizManager 2.5 is compatible and will enhance the File
Managers of Windows 3.1 and 3.11 and Windows for Workgroups
3.1 and 3.11. However, WizManager 2.5 is NOT compatible with
an un-official version of File Manager that is available for
download from some online services. This un-official version
(which has a Toolbar that cannot be customized) will not load
WizManager 2.5 properly and instead will hang/get stock at
startup. If you wish to use WizManager 2.5, then re-install
the standard File Manager that came with your copy of Windows.
-> If you have problems displaying files correctly with
WizManager's file viewer (all the text files are displayed in
in HEX format for example) then you probably have an older
version of MHVIEW.VBX in your WINDOWS or SYSTEM directory.
WizManager provides the latest version of MHVIEW and you can
replace the older version of MHVIEW.VBX in your WINDOWS or
SYSTEM directory with the MHVIEW.VBX file found in the
WizManager directory (C:\WIZMGR\MHVIEW.VBX by default).
Older versions of MHVIEW.VBX are used and installed by
MicroHelp's Uninstaller program for example.
-> If you encounter General Protection Fault (GPF) error
messages while running WizManager or screen refreshing
problems after deleting a directory, start the Windows Setup
program and change the video driver of your system to a
standard Windows video driver (says "VGA" in the video
drivers list) and determine whether General Protection
Fault messages still appear. If they don't, update the video
drivers you were using to the latest available version.
-> You can avoid the screen refreshing problems generated by a
few video drivers when deleting a directory by selecting the
directory to delete in the directory window (right side of
File Manager) and not in the directory tree (left side of
File Manager).
-> DO NOT DECLARE MORE THAN 4 EXTENSIONS IN THE WINFILE.INI
[AddOns] section (5 extensions if you are running Windows
for Workgroups 3.11):
File Manager limits you to 4 extensions and it is up to you
to "keep up" and maintain the [AddOns] section of WINFILE.INI.
If you have more than 4 declarations under [AddOns], simply
type a ';' (without the quotes) at the beginning of the
line(s) you want File Manager to ignore. This lets you keep
all the declarations in case you decide later to alter your
choices and start only the ones you need.
During the installation of WizManager, the [AddOns] section
of WINFILE.INI is updated to include the WizManager library
path. This declaration is appended at the end of the [AddOns]
section. If more than 3 other declarations exist above
WizManager's line, proceed as explained above to cancel out
one or more declarations (use Notepad.exe for example to edit
WINFILE.INI, and modify the [AddOns] entries only).
-> If WizManager presents problems when you close and restart
File Manager, then make sure that the WizManager entry in
the [addons] section of WINFILE.INI is declared as the first
entry (i.e. is the first line under [addons]).
-> Lantastic File Manager extension makes File Manager load
WizManager twice and disables WizManager's functionality. To
correct this, remove the Lantastic File Manager extension
declaration from the [AddOns] section in WINFILE.INI and if
you use the features provided by the Lantastic menu in File
Manager, then create buttons in the WizManager Launchbar to
start these Lantastic utilities.
-> There are a few programs which are incompatible with the
WizManager Lock feature. These programs are mainly screen
savers (not the major ones) and a few utilities like Diamond
System's "In Control Tools".
