- I have been able to (finally) recreate situations that cause the ini
- files to fill up with garbage. I hope IBM is listening here.
-
- To recreate the problem:
- 1) Make a copy of a program object that is stored in a subdirectory
- to the desktop. I was using a 200 K .exe in this case
-
- 2) Drag and drop the the newly copied object on the desktop to
- the shredder and delete.
-
- 3) os2sys.ini file will grow (34 K in this case)
-
- Sounds like a WPS problem to me...
