The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft Works for Windows, versions 3.0, 3.0a, and 3.0b
-------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY
=======
To delete the Works for Windows program files, choose the Microsoft Works
Setup icon or run SETUP.EXE from the MSWORKS\SETUP directory, and choose
the Remove All button. Choosing Remove All deletes all the Works 3.0 for
Windows files except for the following:
 - Any new documents saved to the MSWORKS directory or its
   subdirectories.
 - Any new subdirectories created by the user.
 - Any files, such as clip art files, manually copied to the MSWORKS
   directory or its subdirectories.
 - Any custom templates created.
 - The MSWORKS directory and its subdirectories: CLIPART, SAMPLES,
   SETUP, WKSTMPL, and MSWORKS.CBT.  After you choose the Remove All
   option, the files in these subdirectories will be deleted and you can
   then manually delete the subdirectories themselves.
 - The setup files located in the SETUP subdirectory.
 - The shared program files, such as Spelling and Microsoft Draw, if
   you choose to remove these files after choosing Remove All.

MORE INFORMATION
================
After choosing Remove All, all of the Works sample files such as
WINGLIST.WDB will be deleted, regardless of whether these files have
been changed. If you are using these files, make sure you have a backup
of them before removing the Works 3.0 installation.
