Windows 95B, dBASE IV, Tpexe

[Guest]

At one time I could use Start>Programs>MSDOS Prompt, and see in the smaller
DOS window the default to C:\Windows. Thereafter I could CD to C:\DBASE> and
run that application with the command DBASE or DBASE/T (to bypass the
Ashton-Tate spash screen). That particular application ends with a QUIT at
the dot prompt and you are returned to C:\DBASE>. This procedure worked
flawlessly for many, many years.

Of late, however, when exit dBASE with the QUIT command, a good share of the
time I get an error message regarding "Tpexe" that is one of those appearing
in the CTRL/ALT/DEL window.

Can anyone tell me what might be going on and why this "Tpexe" got into the
act?

If you have a Gateway PC and upgraded your Telepath 28.8/33.6 modem to
v.90(56k), Tpexe.exe is the TSR which is called by Win.ini (and the
registry) for the modem

If Tpexe.exe is not in a Telepath folder, then tell us where it is and
right-click it, select Properties and see if their is an indication of
ownership.
