INTRODUCTION Thank you for considering File/Archive. We hope you find it useful. As you will see in the license, you are acquiring the right to use this product; you do not own it. Since this program is offered as a shareware program, you need to register your copy of the system in order to become a fully supported, registered user. When you register your copy of File/Archive by remitting the registration fee of $50, we will send you a registered copy of the programs containing the latest updates, a printed copy of the complete documentation, and add you to our list of registered users. (Indiana residents add 5% sales tax - $2.50.) You will then be entitled to telephone support for any problems or questions that may arise. We will also notify you as new releases become available. Several additional enhancements are already under development. We also welcome suggestions for additions and improvements to the File/Archive system. Correspondence and registration fees should be sent to: Marcor Enterprises 8857 Commerce Park Place Suite D Indianapolis, IN 46268 After you have installed File/Archive, there will be a file called LICENSE.DOC which contains the license agreement and a file called FORM.DOC containing a form which may be used to register your copy of File/Archive.

GETTING STARTED File/Archive may be installed on your hard disk using the automatic installation procedure provided. It assumes that your hard disk is drive C: and will install the system in a directory called FILARC. IT GIVES YOU THE OPPORTUNITY TO OVERRIDE THESE PARAMETERS IF YOU WISH. It will also create two batch files in the root directory of drive C:, but again, will give you the opportunity to override this. IT WILL NOT INSTALL ANY OF THESE FILES IF ANY ONE OF THEM ALREADY EXISTS. If you don't want to use the installation procedure provided, establish a directory where you want the system installed; make that directory current; type A:FILARC10 and press enter; type A:USER and press enter; run program FACS. If you want the system to create the batch files, run INSTBAT according to the instructions in that file. Page 3 ADDITIONAL PRODUCTS FROM MARCOR ENTERPRISES: FILE/SAVER: This system automatically determines when backups should be made and reminds you whenever you turn on your computer or ask it to check the status of backups. You can set different backup criteria for any combination of directories or files and File/Saver only tells you about those files/directories that currently should be backed up. If nothing needs backing up when File/Saver checks it, it automatically returns you to DOS. You never have to worry about the hassle of remembering to do backups because File/Saver automatically tells you. It maintains a complete history of backup activity, which disks contain which backed up files, and allows you to review this information on screen or produce a printed report. The system supports color and lets you choose any combination of colors or black & white. Price: $30 THE GUARDIAN: The Guardian is a security system designed to protect an entire disk (either a hard disk or a diskette) against unauthorized use. Individual files on a disk may or may not be protected by a password mechanism or an encryption routine. The Guardian uses an algorithm that logically "locks" a disk so that NO files, programs or directories on the disk may be accessed regardless of whether they are otherwise secured. Although designed primarily to protect a hard disk, it can just as easily be used to lock a diskette - a very useful feature for a disk that isn't locked up in a safe every day. The Guardian presents a sign-on menu every time you turn on your computer and, if you don't properly identify yourself, it "locks" the disk, making all files untouchable. Only you have the tool to unlock it. In case someone knows that you have a security system, you might fear that they will boot your computer from a diskette and then go roaming through your hard disk. To prevent this, just call up The Guardian and tell it to lock your disk before you leave - you're immediately protected. When your disk is locked, no one can access your files or even see what files are there. It takes less than a second to lock or unlock a hard disk and just a little bit longer for diskettes. In addition to the sign-on program, the system comes with a program for setting colors, setting or changing up to six (6) passwords, and selectively locking or unlocking any disk. To Page 4 unlock a disk, you must know the master password that was in effect when the disk was originally locked.
