Copy Protection
2-3
You can use the Checkdrives environment variable to specify the drives and order in
which to check them for the activation file. In your AUTOEXEC.BAT file or a batch
file that starts your software, include the line
SET CHECKDRIVES=drive_letters
where “drive_letters” is a list of drives to check. The command can be in upper or
lower case and no punctuation is required. For example,
SET CHECKDRIVES=AQC
will check drives A, Q, and C in that order for the activation file.
If you do not want your A.I. Series software to search local floppy drives for the
activation file, you can set the KEYDISK environment variable to false.
SET KEYDISK=FALSE (or SET KEYDISK=0)
