I lost the part of the drop down list that allows me to do a "copy disk" for my A: drive when you right click on the Floppy Drive in Windows explorer. I'm runing Win98se and it used to be there but it's gone now. Any suggestions?

Hello,

unitl you find a proper solution you can use the DOS command "diskcopy" from DOS prompt.
I do not know a proper answer.

I hope that will help a little bit.

Just highlight all the files on the right side of the explorer window, right click and select copy.

The "disk copy" option is burried/missing in the registry.

Sounds like your "c:\windows\system\diskcopy.dll" file is either missing
or damaged. To extract a copy of your original insert your Win98 CD,
click Start|Run, then type (or cut & paste) this command:

extract /a z:\win98\win98_02.cab diskcopy.dll /l c:\windows\system

Before you click Ok change that "z:" to the drive letter assigned to
your CD-ROM drive.

Here's a brief breakdown of that command:
