Help Diskettes

Click below to download a file that will install a KORRnet destop icon on your computer and help files. The desktop icon is a  profile for HyperTerminal. Clicking it will start HyperTerminal with the dial up phone number for KORRnet already installed. 

This is a great tool for helping others apply for email accounts with KORRnet and access the internet through our server. All you need to do is: 

• Download korrnet.exe to your hard drive. (click korrnet.exe and save the file to your machine)
• Put a blank floppy disk in your computer.
• Double click korrnet.exe on your computer.

This will produce a floppy disk you can use to install help files and a KORRnet desktop icon on any computer you want. Here's how that works: 

1) Insert the diskette you just made 
2) Click the Start button 
3) Select Run 
4) Type a:\help 
5) click OK 

This is what happens when you follow the five steps above: 

1) A small program called help.bat makes a folder on your hard drive called KORRnet. (You can find this folder in Windows Explorer by opening: C:\Program Files\Accessories.) 

2) The program copies all the files on the diskette into the new folder. 

3) Then it moves a HyperTerminal profile to the HyperTerminal folder. (The profile is called KORRnet.ht, and it can be found in: C:\Program Files\Accessories\HyperTerminal.) 

4) Next, shortcuts to the KORRnet HyperTerminal profile and a folder with KORRnet help files are moved to your desk top. The HyperTerminal shortcut is called KORRnet, it's on your desk top and looks like two little phones. The KORRnet help files are in a folder on your desk top called KORRnet Help. (Both of these shortcuts' files are in C:\Windows\Desktop) 

5) Lastly, Notepad opens to display a more detailed version of this text! Please read past step 5) in that text for more information.
