As I suggested in another message try putting this in your batch file:
XCOPY C:\WINDOWS\*.* X:\WINDOWS /M
where X: is your Zip drive. Then you simply click on the icon and an
incremental of the WINDOWS folder is done to the Zip drive. I think the
double drive letters (X:\C:) confuses WIN95, also me. Herb.
PS. If \WINDOWS doesn't already exist, make the sub-directory on the
Zip cartridge.
