Using a Common UNDELETE.INI File with UndeleteArticle ID: 96824 - View products that this article applies to. This article was previously published under Q96824 On This PageSUMMARY
Microsoft Undelete for MS-DOS (UNDELETE.EXE) and Microsoft Undelete
for Windows (MWUNDEL.EXE) are designed to share a common UNDELETE.INI
file. The UNDELETE.INI file specifies how Undelete should configure
memory-resident delete protection. This protection is enabled each
time you run Undelete with one of the following:
undelete /load undelete /s[drive] undelete /t[drive] MORE INFORMATION
The UNDELETE.INI file is a text file that can be edited using an ASCII
text editor, such as MS-DOS Editor. If the MSDOSDATA environment
variable is set, the UNDELETE.INI file is created in the directory
specified by MSDOSDATA. Otherwise, the UNDELETE.INI file is created in
the directory that contains UNDELETE.EXE.
You can change the UNDELETE.INI file settings using any of the following three methods: Using Undelete for WindowsFrom the Options menu, choose Configure Delete Protection. The changes you make take affect the next time you load Undelete. (This is the simplest method.)Using the MS-DOS Command LineWhen you load Undelete using the /S[drive] or /T[drive] parameter, the mode of delete protection and which drive[s] you specify to protect are saved in the UNDELETE.INI file. These changes take affect immediately.Note: This method does not allow you to specify a drive to be left unprotected. For example, if you had been previously loading Delete Sentry on drive C, UNDELETE /SD would enable Delete Sentry on both drives C and D. Editing the UNDELETE.INI FileUse an ASCII text editor, such an MS-DOS Editor, to change the UNDELETE.INI file settings.For more information on the UNDELETE.INI file, type help undelete at the MS-DOS command prompt, press ENTER and refer to the Notes section.
