Hello All,

During my brief absence, a gremlin has snuck into my PC, rendering
my WfWG install useless. Not that it was that great to start
with, but it worked. Most of the time. Until now, that is.

When I boot WfWG, the program manager starts, but there are no
program groups, and there is an error, "Progman - An error has
occurred" If I select close at that point, I get "Application
Error - Progman caused GPF at loc ....."

If I choose Ignore, I get "Cannot open group file '%s'. Do you
want Program Manager to try an load this in future? ". This
occurs ad nauseam.

I have reinstalled WfWG, to no avail - the same error occurs. It
may yet be a case of deltree windows.

In that case, what files would I need to keep to retain things
like video and sound card drivers and settings - win.ini ?
system.ini ? It's a PITA restoring all those sound card and other
settings and drivers - a pain that I wish to avoid, if possible.

Thanks.

Dieter
