Windows 98 Program Files Folder Is Displayed Incorrectly

When you view the Program Files folder as a Web page on a Windows 98-based computer using a Microsoft Windows 95-based or Microsoft Windows NT-based computer with Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.0 or later installed, the files in the Program Files folder may be displayed incorrectly, and you may receive the following message:

This behavior can occur because the Windows 95-based or Windows NT-based computers do not have the Webview.css file installed. This file is needed to correctly display the default Windows 98 Program Files folder in Web View.

To prevent files in the Program Files folder from being displayed incorrectly when you view the Program Files folder as a Web page on your Windows 98-based computer, copy the Webview.css file to the Program Files folder, and then modify the Folder.htt file located in the Program Files folder. To do so, use the following steps:

1. The Webview.css and Folder.htt files have the hidden attribute. Verify that you can view hidden files on your Windows 98-based computer. To do so, see the following article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

2. Copy the Webview.css file to the Program Files folder. For information about how to copy a file, click Start, click Help, click the Index tab, type copying, and then double-click the "Copying files" topic.
3. Click Start, point to Programs, click Windows Explorer, and then double-click the Program Files folder.
4. On the View menu, click Customize This Folder, click Next, and then click Next.
5. Remove the %TEMPLATEDIR%\ entry from the following line:
   <link rel=stylesheet href="%TEMPLATEDIR%\webview.css" title="Windows">
   For example, after you make this change, the line should look like this:
   <link rel=stylesheet href="webview.css" title="Windows">
6. Click File, click Save, quit Notepad, click Finish, and then quit Windows Explorer.
