REFRESH will do the same like Format (or even more)
without loosing your data.

Original data is read for 12 retries (DOS does it only 6 times !),
and REFRESH makes 2 tries to write (read after write).
The complete sector is written after the read attempts.

So you will have a chance to repair marked ' - bad - ' Floppies
or even the Hard-Disk.

If you press any key, REFRESH will stop.

GOOD LUCK !

Wolfgang K. Meister 29 September 1985

  1. Very nice! Thank you for this wonderful archive. I wonder why I found it only now. Long live the BBS file archives!

  2. This is so awesome! 😀 I’d be cool if you could download an entire archive of this at once, though.

  3. But one thing that puzzles me is the “mtswslnkmcjklsdlsbdmMICROSOFT” string. There is an article about it here. It is definitely worth a read: http://www.os2museum.com/wp/mtswslnk/
