True... however, under Win95 (ie. when you're in the GUI) it's VFAT, which
is an IFS (layered - it builds on the existing system, so I guess it's not
a whole IFS). Under MSDOS7 it's plain old built in FAT16.
BTW, FAT32 is Win95 only. It doesn't work under MSDOS7. I assume either DOS7
is (mostly) non-existant under FAT32, or FAT32 is truely a complete IFS for
Win95.
 DB> Out of curiosity, how do you remove the IFS manager under Windows 95?
The only way I've figured is to delete the driver, IFSMGR.SYS or whatever 
t's
called. I don't use Win95:B (yet) so I don't know about how it handles FAT32.
