When you try to start the Spectrum Holobyte game Falcon 3.0 in an MS-DOS
window in Windows 95, you receive the following error message:
Cannot Open File
This error occurs even when the FALCON3 directory is in your PATH
statement, and it still occurs when you provide the complete path to the
FALCON3.EXE file.
CAUSE
When Falcon 3 is loading, it expects to find the necessary support files
in the currently active directory.
RESOLUTION
To start Falcon 3.0, you must be in the FALCON3 directory. When you create
a shortcut for Falcon 3, the working directory must be FALCON3.
