CAN I DELETE THESE FILES

[DARB]

I installed a fax program not knowing it was for networking and internet called JFAX. I did that the day I got my computer. I found under WIN INI in the systerm configuation ttool that the fax program was still listed and I unchecked all the boxes. The fax program is not installed any where else.Yesterday I was using Sys edit and under the Win ini there was the Jfax progam. Can I deleate this from my win ini folder without any additional problems

REM it out first. If then there are no problems, you can delete it.

REM stands for remark. Any time you place this in front of a line such as rem c:\windows\win it will prevent the system from loading that particular device. If the system boots fine\no error messages with the line remed out, you can delete the line.

What the hell does rem it out first mean????

[DARB]

I went into the file and there is rem: in front of all of those entries. The reason I didn't see it is because the R in rem is almost off the page,but my boxes that are in the win ini file under tools system information utility/ get to it by MSconfig.Will the entris and the boxes dissapear when I take out the main text???????. I haven't tryed yet. Always like to know what I'm in for.

It's been a long time since I fooled around the ini file, but I thought that REM is for batch only. ;; is what I used to REM a line.

I doubt the rem will remove the check boxes in the winconfig. You are talking about win 98 correct. You can safely add a rem to any batch file or ini..win.ini\system.ini. If it causes a problem, simply remove the rem and save the file. Go ahead and play. How else will you learn?
