The following letter comes from the developer of XFolder, an
enhancement for OS/2 which improves many WPS features and adds some
completely new ones.  For more information, see the XFolder home
page:

Or see the latest issue of OS/2 e-Zine! (v3n07) in the "First Looks
and Nifty Gadgets" section.



   Dear users of XFolder,

   The next XFolder version is in the works, and a number of bugs
   will be removed. However, I have managed to introduce a few new
   ones, so I thought it'd be best to remove these before releasing
   this version to the public. This may take a few more weeks, so be
   a little more patient.

   For those of you who have had problems with the XFolder Extended
   Shutdown, especially this mysterious message saying "An error
   occured saving the INI files: 5", here is a temporary workaround
   until the next version is released:

   This error ("5") means "Access Denied", that is, XFolder tries to
   back up the existing INI files from OS2*.INI to OS2*.BAK.
   Unfortunately, on a normal OS/2 system, the INI files have the
   Hidden and System Attributes enabled, so simply renaming these
   files fails, causing this very error. The next XFolder version
   will fix this, but until then, you can simply open a command line
   and type

   CD ?:\OS2

   (with ? being your boot drive) and then

   ATTRIB -R -S -H OS2*.INI

   This should fix the problem, provided that you keep using
   XShutdown from then on. ;-)

   Sorry about this bug, but on my system these attributes were not
   set, so this error never occured on my system.

   Regards
