Changing the Location of Win95 Installation Files

By: Arie Slob

If you've added a new drive to your system, chances are that your CD-ROM drive got a new drive letter. Now every time you need to update some Windows 95 files, you have to tell Windows 95 where to find the Win95 CD-ROM. Here is how to change the location where Windows 95 looks for it's files:

  1. Start the Registry Editor
  2. Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ Software \ Microsoft \ Windows \ CurrentVersion \ Setup
  3. In the right-hand pane find the SourcePath key
  4. Double-click this key and change the location for your Win95 files
