		HOW IS ACCESS WINSAFE IF IN SAFE MODE
	If you get to Safe Mode and do not have a task bar or icons on
your desktop click on the Windows button on your key board. Then the
Taskman will appear, click on file and the Run Application. Then use
the browser button in the Run Window that will appear next and find
Winsafty.exe in the Winsafe directory. Then click on utilities and
then Explorer.


		WHAT TO DO IF YOU ARE IN SAFE MODE
In case of a crash, enter Windows in Safe Mode and access WinSafe95. Click
on the REPORT button; when WinSafe finishes you may view the changes made to
files. This should be a good start to finding the problem.
If you can, try printing it out. If you are unable to print it out, write
all the information down. Then click the RESTORE button and restart your
computer. You may also select the option of restoring your old configuration.
Winsafe will allow you to use the old configuration without have backed up
after you have restored using the restore button. To do this use the Restore
from Safe command at the menu bar under Restore. Winsafe will only allow you
to restore once with the current backup files then with the Restore from
Safe. You can always restore the current configuration later.
All necessary files will be over written with your backup. If this fixes
your problem you may continue and backup at any time. Remember, once you have
used the restore feature, WinSafe95 will not allow you to backup until you
have rebooted to Windows successfully (except if you use the Restore from
Safe command).If you still boot into Safe Mode, use the WinSafe command at
the Dos prompt.
 See WHAT TO DO IF YOU CAN NOT BOOT TO WINDOWS.


		WHAT TO DO IF YOU CAN NOT BOOT TO WINDOWS
If you crash to a point that you can only access the C:\>, go to the WinSafe
directory and type  the word WinSafe at the WinSafe directory.
Example:
C:\windows>cd\		(press enter)
C:\>cd\winsafe		(press enter)
C:\WINSAFE>WINSAFE	(press enter)
This instruction file will open and be displayed. All necessary files will
be overwritten with your backup and your Autoexec.bat and the Config.sys will
be deleted. These two files can be restored later using the restore button.
Be sure to read the HOW TO RESTORE section first.

Then type "Edit restore.txt" at the WinSafe directory (if this file did not
automatically appear).
Restart your computer and enter windows. You will need to fix the problem
that caused the crash before being able to backup or restore. All the vital
files will no longer be hidden until you backup again This means you may
now use windows to copy files. This is so that you may repair the problem.
If you still can not boot to Windows, use the
Winsafe1 command at the WinSafe directory.
Example:
C:\windows>cd\		(press enter)
C:\>cd\winsafe		(press enter)
C:\WINSAFE>WINSAFE1	(press enter)
This will then recopy the registry from the safe (placed there the day you
installed WinSafe95 or the last time you saved the old configuration)and
your Win.ini and System.ini. If at this point you are still unable to get
into Safe Mode to look for other conflicts (usually at this point it is a
hardware problem), you should then strip your computer of all unnecessary
hardware including PC cards inside the unit that are not essential to operate
(i.e.: modem, scanner, sound cards, etc.). If you still cannot boot to
Windows you will have to reinstall Windows 95. Type the word Winstall at the
WinSafe directory and WinSafe will access your cabinet files. Do not restore
with WinSafe95 after reinstalling Windows you may manually copy files back
but do not copy back the registry, after you are up and running, backup.


			HOW TO RESTORE
Do not restore until you have repaired the problem!
A good place to start is with the bootlog.txt file, read it for failed
loaded items. You can also read it at the C:\ prompt in DOS using the 
edit command i.e. C:\EDIT BOOTLOG.TXT. You may have to choose log boot
first.
After you have booted to windows in Safe Mode you may compare the SYSTEM
INFORMATION that you saved to the new information that you now have from
the SYSTEM INFORMATION file. Also look at the MSD file.
After you have booted to Windows and repaired the problem, and you have
rebooted a couple of times. If you restored from the DoS prompt using the
Winsafe or Winsafe1 command you must then use the Restored From DOS
command located at the Menu bar RESTORE. You can then backup with WinSafe95.
If you used the WinSafe command, your problem was most likely a driver or
hardware conflict. Your Autoexec.bat and Config.sys load these drivers.
These two files load software and hardware drivers that Windows does not
need to run and all these entries have been made by the software that has
been added. In most cases, you do not need to run an Autoexec.bat or a
Config.sys.
To help find your problem replace these two files with empty files as follows:
open notepad and type the word REM on the top line and save as Autoexec.bat
in the c:\ drive; do the same for the Config.sys. Now copy one line from the
Autoexec.bat or Config.sys that is stored in the WinSafe directory into its'
corresponding empty file and reboot. Repeat this process until you can no
longer boot into Windows successfully. When you get locked out of Windows;
use the WinSafe command, reboot to Windows and fix the problem. Now you can
click restore on WinSafe95. If WinSafe95 will not allow you to restore, go
to the c:\ drive in your Explorer. Scroll down in the right window to
Safe.Exe and double click it. You will now be able to restore without
backing up again.
