When I delete an application, why do I get an "Unable to backup system files" error?
This error is caused by the lack of some standard INI files. This is commonly a result of running under a third party shell that may replace standard components, such as File Manager. As a result, the INI files for the standard components may never be created.
You can correct this error by launching File Manager. This will force Windows to create the WINFILE.INI file that Setup Monitor is looking for.
This problem is also resolved by upgrading to the most recent version of UnInstaller
16-bit 3.00.24. You can download

I get the message "Your Windows Shell is Not Responding to the DDE Request" . How to I get rid of this message?
This message will display when your system is running low on resources.
To get past the message:
- Close UnInstaller.
- Close down any other applications you have running.
- Check your system's configuration to be certain it is taking advantage of all available resources. (Please refer to your operating system documentation for further guidance in optimizing your particular system's configuration.)
- Load UnInstaller only and select the UnInstaller operation you were selecting before the error message displayed.

Starting in Safe Mode loads only the mouse, keyboard, and standard VGA device drivers which helps to isolate the memory problem.
