SYMPTOMS
When installing a set of disks created by the Setup Wizard on Windows 95,
the user receives an error. This error occurs after clicking "Continue"
when choosing the directory to install the application. The title bar of
the dialog box that comes up says:
"Setup Error 992"
The box itself reads:
"Object 243. Your setup files may be damaged. Try restarting the setup
program."
The same set of disks will install without error onto a Windows for
Workgroups system.
CAUSE
In step 6 of the Setup Wizard ("File Summary"), the developer has specified
a description for an icon to be created containing illegal characters.
Characters that cannot be used in the description of a Windows 95 icon
are (not including the commas):
RESOLUTION
Do not use any of the characters specified above in the description of an
icon in step 6 of the Setup Wizard.
STATUS
This behavior is by design.
