SYMPTOMS
If you run Tabworks in Windows 95 and set it as the shell, and then try to
return to the normal Windows 95 shell, Tabworks sets Program Manager as the
shell.
CAUSE
Tabworks changes the "shell=" line in the System.ini file. The normal shell
for Windows 95 is Explorer.exe, but Tabworks set the shell to Progman.exe.
RESOLUTION
To return to the normal Windows 95 shell, use any text editor (such as
Notepad) to edit the System.ini file. Modify the "shell=" line so that it
reads:
shell=explorer.exe
After you make this change, save and then close the file, and then restart
Windows 95.
