Trouble with MS-DOS Batch file.
Well, pretty much I don't know what it is... or why I have it in my folder. But the readme tells me that I need it. Its going to install a bunch of files to C:/program files/ Now, thats fine, I want these files anyways. But whats not fine is that I can't chose where to put them, I want them in my E drive rather than my C drive. (I do not have enough space on my C drive.)

The readme explains how to install it to a specified directory. Only... it tells me to find a line starting with '::--' and read and follow the directions below it.

Now, wow do I go about editing this DOS Batch file and finding this line?

If you can help me, that would be grand.

Thanks.

I don't understand the problem at all, but if you just want to edit a batch file, you right click on it and select Edit. It'll open in Notepad.
