WINuae faux HDD

[ptek]

Beware of the sticky files syndrome )))

Once I copied some AMIGA files into a windows folder from a AMIGA CD backup I did and some of them couldn't be later  removed by Windows !

Thats true! I think it was some MUI files ...

How did i managed to delete them ? I didnt
I had a PC hard disk corruption later (by other reasons, not related to winuae surelly) so ALL the files were gone ;-)

Try to do after WorkBench boot :

assign  DH0:  (name of the virtual harddisk here)

I can't test this now ...

I should be working at this moment at the office ;-)

You can always remove files from a windows folder.

Nope, not always ...
Believe me, it already happened to friends of mine when the filename have not usual characters like ç,á and other.

And the files weren't in use.

Yes, I also sure it was a MUI file.

Hey guys : now you know what you're going to get if you install MUI using FAT32 (and 16 maybe) as described !

About the other problem I mentioned (when using unusual charaters combinations on filenames) it didn't happen to me (yet) but to a friend of mine ...
