Microsoft Excel 5.0
I'm running Windows ME. It came with Microsoft Works. I
am trying to install Excel 5.0. During setup I get a message that installation cannot be completed because it can't find Share.EXE. How can I solve this problem? |

Microsoft Excel 5.0
Win Me contains no share.exe and this file hasn't been part of a Microsoft
operating system since Win 95OSR2 was released however there is an easy way round the problem. The fix is to right click on your desktop, select New, text document and name the file share.exe. In other words create an empty file named share.exe. Now move the file to the Windows\system folder and another copy to the "root" of C:, that is to C:\ itself. For more details see MS KB161619 - "Share.exe Is Not Supported in Windows 95 OSR2, Windows 98 or Windows Me" (http://support.microsoft.com?kbid=161619). -- Mike Maltby MS-MVP Bettye wrote: I'm running Windows ME.
