How do I resolve the error: "share not loaded"?

A:

To resolve this:

version of windows. Call Microsoft and
request the file.

3.11 if SHARE.EXE is not loaded.

have a dual boot with WIN3.1. Remove
Windows 3.1.

To load share temporarily, type
SHARE at the dos prompt. To load
share permanently, edit the AUTOEXEC.BAT
file and add the line "C:\DOS\SHARE.EXE
/L:500 /F:5100".
