The WIN.INI file must be set for read/write access to properly run
Microsoft Windows. If the file attributes for WIN.INI are set to Read Only
you may receive one of the following error messages:
Cannot save new settings
This file exists and is read-only. Use a different filename.
Changing this attribute at the MS-DOS level to read/write corrects
this problem. (Refer to your MS-DOS manual for specific instructions
on setting the MS-DOS file attributes.) You can also change the file
attributes with the Windows File Manager using the Change Attributes
command from the File menu.
In a network situation, verify that you have read/write access to the
WIN.INI file.
