DiskSweep for Windows Version 1.03c Elite High Technology, Inc. Copyright 1993, 1994, All Rights Reserved ************************************************************************* Current Revision Information The latest revision is 1.03c. Revision 1.03c Fixes a problem where the program mistakenly limits all sweep floppies to 64 files per floppy. Now this limit scales based on the size of the floppy. A 1.44MB HD floppy will hold 200 files. Fixes a problem when continuing sweeps onto the last floppy. There was name wraparound which would occasionally corrupt the data already on the floppy. Fixes a problem when sweeping files over several floppies. Sometimes the swept file was tagged incorrectly with an earlier floppy in the sequence. Revision 1.03b Fixes a problem when sweeping files to floppy and File Verify fails or the user decides NOT to free the hard disk space. The files left on the Hard Drive are mistakenly marked swept, causing the File Watcher TSR to think they are swept. The new version will correctly unmark the files if the sweep is not completed successfully. Further, for users who may have some files left in this state by the earlier versions of DiskSweep, a Fixup command is furnished under the Advanced Options Dialog. This command looks for any files marked as swept but which have a size larger than 0 and unmarks them. The command can be applied at the usual directory, directory tree, volume, or system levels. Revision 1.03a Fixes a problem when sweeping lots of small files to floppy. In some cases, the capacity of the floppy's root directory was exceeded. Now there is a limit of 200 files per floppy. Now in the Cleanup window, when files are selected, the number of files selected as well as the total space in bytes occupied by those files are displayed. This will help in estimating the number of floppy disks needed to SWEEP. ************************************************************************* Installation To install this program, insert this floppy into either the A: or B: drive. From Windows, in the Program Manager, run the SETUP.EXE program on the installation floppy. To do this pull down the File menu and select Run from that menu. In the dialog box, fill in A:SETUP or B:SETUP, depending on which drive the floppy is inserted into. Compatibility PCTools' DiskFix program is incompatible with DiskSweep. DiskFix will mistakenly detect corrupted directory structures and ERASE the entire hard disk. Do not run DiskFix with DiskSweep installed. On some machines, the use of FASTOPEN will cause Windows to freeze when DiskSweep is also running. If you see this happening, stop using FASTOPEN. Netroom has a reported incompatibility with DiskSweep which is currently being investigated. PCKWIK generates a spurious (harmless) error message at boot time about DISK A: not ready. Choose Fail to proceed. DiskSweep is incompatible with WFW 3.11's 32 bit file access. There are no other known incompatibilities at this time.
