No Network Neighborhood in Win 98SE

Hi,

I think that someone may have deleted the Windows 98SE Network
Neighborhood from my PC as I cannot find any trace of it. Is there any
way I can install it again?

Thanks
Gerald

 

Provided it was not removed with Tweaki ui follow these steps.

1)Delete all *.pwl files. (Start/Find/Files or Folders and search your
drive for them.)

2) Now go to: Start/Settings/Control Panel/NetworkIcon/Configuration Tab.
Make sure that "Client for Microsoft Networks" is in the list. If it is not
there, then install it:
a. Push ADD button
b. highlight "Client" in the list shown
c. Push ADD button
d. Under Manufacturers, highlight "Microsoft"
e. Under Network Clients, highlight "Client for Microsoft Networks"
f. Push OK button
g. Double click on tcp/ip->Dial up Adapter. Select the "Bindings" tab
and uncheck Client for MS Networks
h. click ok

3) Make sure that "Windows Logon" is selected in the "Primary
Network Logon" box.

4) Reboot your computer

5) When you see the "Enter username and password" logon screen during the
reboot, enter a name only and click "OK" with no password entered.

6) You will be prompted to confirm, click ok again with no password entered.

That's it.

 

Unless you have a second computer connected, there is no need for it.
About the only purpose it serves with one computer, is to logon at startup.

Yes, but that logon is Network logon.

 

Just reinstall the network components.
