When you press the F3 key to exit the first screen of an MS-DOS 6.22 DoubleSpace-to-DriveSpace conversion, the following dialog box is displayed:

Quitting DriveSpace

DriveSpace is not completely set up on your system. If you quit now, your hard disk will be unchanged; to compress it, you will need to run DriveSpace again. To quit now, press F3. To continue DriveSpace, press ENTER.

The dialog box suggests that you were attempting a compression rather than a DoubleSpace-to-DriveSpace conversion. The dialog box should read as follows:

Quitting DriveSpace

DriveSpace is not completely set up on your system. If you quit now, your hard disk will be unchanged; to convert it, you will need to run DriveSpace again. To quit now, press F3. To continue DriveSpace, press ENTER.
