OK. But how do I copy it and where do I copy it to?

Well, I just plugged in the flash drive, and, to my surprise, there was
nothing that read "EDITOR.EXE." There was EDITOR with an icon that looks
like a monitor (when I put the cursor on it, it reads: "Type: Application.
Size: 177KB").

And there was a second EDITOR, with the icon of the colorful, puffy letters
MSDOS. When the cursor is on this, it reads: "Type: Performs text-based
(command line) functions. Size: 2.76KB." I tried to click this one on, and
again got the message:
      "This program requires more conventional memory. Unload drivers
or memory-      resident programs that use conventional memory, or
increase the value for Minimum Conventional Memory in the program's Memory
property sheet."

Now I'm wary of clicking on the first EDITOR (177KB) even on the flashdrive,
because by clicking on EDITOR.EXE on my C:drive is what caused EDITOR.EXE to
disappear, leaving only EDITOR.BAK.

What to do?
