_______________________________________________________________

 VF will make your day a little bit easier. Instead of filling your 
 desktop with loads of windows while you're looking for a specific
 folder, just run VF and the folder magically appears, instantly.
 VF for windows is easy to use, just follow the online directions.
 Remember you must scan your'e drives in order for VF to work.

______________________________________________________________
 Installing:
 
 Just copy the executable (vfwin.exe) into your windows directory or
 somewhere else in your dos path ,and create a shortcut to it wherever 
 you want. Preferrably on your desktop for easy access. Giving it a 
 shorcut key-combination will also speed things up. VFwin will leave 
 two files in your Windows directory.The first is VFWIN.DAT which is 
 the file containing the directory structure of your disks, the other is a 
 small file named VFWIN.INI. To uninstall VFwin, just delete these three
 files: vfwin.exe, vfwin.dat and vfwin.ini. 
 
 VF does NOT change anything in your registry or configuration files.

______________________________________________________________ 
 Opening an folder:
  
 Type in the folder name, or part of the foldername in the textbox,
 and press start. This will open the first folder found in the .DAT
 file with that name. If you have several folders with similar names,
 just press start again, and you'll open the next folder with that
 name found in the .DAT file, and so on..
 Typing enough of the foldername to make it unique, makes access 
 faster. 
  
 Note that VF uses the real-names of the folders, not the long 
 filenames, ex: 'MyGamesFolder' is really 'mygame~1'.
 
_______________________________________________________________
 Finding files or folders: 
 
 Select the 'Find File' radiobutton, and type in the name of the file
 you are looking for and press start. You can use wildcards such as 
 myfile*.*. You will then be presented with a new window containg all 
 the files found matching the search string. By double clicking the 
 desired file or foldername, you can either open the folder where the 
 file is located, run the file with Win95's associated viewer, or both.  
 If it is a text file (*.txt), the default viewer will probably be notepad, 
 and the file will be opened with it. If it is an .exe file, Win95 will 
 react by running the program, etc .... If there is no associated 
 viewer configured, nothing at all will happen.
 
 Note that the file find-option uses VFWIN.DAT. 
 Also note that VF will find every single file on your system, regard-
 less of attributes. Which means if you enter '*.*' as the filemask,
 you'll end up with ALL you files, including drive labels, the '.' and
 '..' directories, in short EVERYTHING.

____________________________________________________________________
 Total free space:  
 
 By checking the radiobutton marked 'Total free space', VF will
 report back the total amount of free space on all your drives.
 Removable and network drives will not be reported.

_____________________________________________________________________
 Scanning your disks:

 To scan directory structures of your disk, select the desired
 method and press start. Use 'Scan drives except' if you have 
 drives you're not interested in using with VF, Ex: your CDROM.
 Scanning your disks will leave a datafile named VFWIN.DAT in 
 your windows directory. I found it practical and much faster to 
 use a datafile instead of scanning the disks every single time
 I wanted to open a folder. Besides, in these days quite a few
 Windows users have a multi drive system, and searching who
 knows how many drives each time for a folder, would take ages.
 That's why the .DAT file.

 You can use multiple drive letters in the 'Scan all drives except'
 option. The order of the drive letter is not important.
 
 In the 'Scan drive and append you can only enter one drive letter.
