re: program.exe message when booting Thursday, November 28, 2002 at 9:24 am Windows 98 Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Bob G (616 messages posted) I do not have this file on my Windows 98 ver 1 system. You would seem to have two options. Reload the program that has this file or eliminate it from the location trying to load it. I believe there are several possible locations. Autoexec.bat - Win.ini - system.ini - registry - Startup Folder - etc. Run your System File Check (SFC) to check/eliminate it if it on the SFC list. You may get some other posibilities from the experts.
