Just because I read it does not mean I remember it.
When you get to by my age, you will understand.

>Normally, you would not need to delete anything, you would just run

>different procedure.

> - delete everything under \os2\archives
> - do not delete the \os2\archives directory
> - run unimaint until it reports no errors
> - shutdown and reboot
> - run unimaint again until it reports no errors
> - try checkini

>This will clean up a lot of errors. You may need to reset some
>attributes to get everything to delete.

DONE

>If checkini is still broken, run it as:

> checkini /s /w

>zip up the log and let me see it.

see attached checkini.zip

>To rebuild the desktop archive run:

> archinst

>fromt the command line

I get the error message: Unknown command ARCHINST

I have been using WPS Bkup for years (since Warp V.3). I can always
restore the desktop from a maintenance partition.
