****  This file contains information on Win32s.

========================================================================
        Determining Win32s version
========================================================================
You can determine which version of Win32s you have in one of two ways:
    - Check the WIN32S.INI file in your Windows system directory.
    - If you are running Windows for Workgroups, select the WIN32S16.DLL 
      file from the Windows system directory in File Manager. Then from 
      the File menu, choose Properties. The Version line contains the 
      major version and the build number. 

========================================================================
        Removing Win32s
========================================================================
To remove the Win32s, do the following:

1. Remove the following line from the [386Enh] section in the SYSTEM.INI 
   file:

      device=<WINDOWS>\<SYSTEM>\win32s\w32s.386

   where <WINDOWS> and <SYSTEM> are where the Windows and System
   directories are, respectively.

2. Remove winmm16.dll from the following line from the [BOOT] section in 
   the SYSTEM.INI file:

      drivers=mmsystem.dll winmm16.dll

3. Delete the following files from the <WINDOWS>\<SYSTEM> subdirectory:
      W32SYS.DLL
      WIN32S16.DLL
      WIN32S.INI

4. Delete all the files in the <WINDOWS>\<SYSTEM>\WIN32S subdirectory.
   Then delete the subdirectory itself.

5. Restart Windows.

========================================================================
        Obtaining Win32s
========================================================================
Here's how you can obtain the Win32s version 1.20, which Microsoft 
refers to as application note PW1118:

  To obtain this Application Note (number PW1118) and the files
  included with it, download PW1118.EXE, a self-extracting file,
  from the Microsoft Software Library (MSL) on the following services:
   - CompuServe
        GO MSL
        Search for PW1118.EXE
        Display results and download
   - Microsoft Download Service (MSDL)
        Dial (206) 936-6735 to connect to MSDL
        Download PW1118.EXE
   - Internet (anonymous FTP)
        ftp ftp.microsoft.com
        Change to the \SOFTLIB\MSLFILES directory
        Get PW1118.EXE
