It would be interesting to have more details about how you did this - can
you do it in Win 98SE?
MickeySoft has been removing stuff for years. They dropped DISKCOMP,
DISKCOPY, and
FC a long time ago, the latter being a useful complement to the COMP command.
O.K., the first two are strictly for floppies, and floppies are generally
irrelevant now in the WIN world, but these three items can still be quite
useful.
At least up through W98, I was able to lift _certain_ DOS versions of
these items,
add them back, and have them still work. Other versions would not
work. This was
on other people's systems. Don't recall if I had as much success with NT
on my own
system.
