found or created to make DOS work just as I wanted.
I don't think I have anything like that. Unless they are on a old CD and
no longer used or thought about.

I put them into an executable PKZIP file & emailed it to one of my yahoo accounts.

I have RDK.exe for that -- Rock's Directory Killer - takes out an entire

directory & everything inside
I have three folders: Z, ZZ, ZZZ for some temporary files.
Z is for more regularly used files of one sort or another.
ZZ is my default download folder rather then use the download folder for
Win. Its a lot easier to find.
ZZZ is rarely used and might just delete it someday.

Occasionally I've installed a new Windows into a differently-named folder, just to see what tries to install into C:\WINDOWS by forced default folder. Ditto, I put the programs I've approved into C:\PROGRAMS, & don't create a "C:\PROGRAM FILES" for the same reason. Caught lots of spyware & scamware like that. . .

I'm just want to find a way to stop Microsoft from barging into my computer any time it wants, & force-downgrading me to their latest version of their spyware system, still called "Windows."
