Description of Windows\Options and Windows\Options\Cabs Folder

MORE INFORMATION

If Windows 95 was preinstalled on your computer, there may be Windows\Options and Windows\Options\Cabs folders on the hard disk. The files in these folders serve the following purposes:

• If you did not receive a Windows 95 CD-ROM with your computer, these files are used by the Create System Disks program to create a floppy- disk backup of the Windows 95 installation disks, should you need to reinstall Windows 95 in the future.
• When you add or remove a Windows 95 component using the Add/Remove Programs tool in Control Panel, Windows 95 Setup uses these files to complete the process instead of prompting you to insert your Windows 95 floppy disks or CD-ROM.

If you have not created your floppy-disk backup of Windows 95, do not delete these files until you have done so.

If you already have a floppy-disk backup of Windows 95 (or if you received Windows 95 on a CD-ROM), these files are provided as a convenience to you. If you delete the files, you need to have your Windows 95 floppy-disk backup or CD-ROM available whenever you change your Windows 95 system configuration.
