Hi
This is not a "bug" in the documentation, it is the way you have
interpreted what it says
On a Win9x/ME system the Windows-System-Directory is called x:\Windows but
in Windows NT and Windows 2000 it is called WinNT. If the author meant to
write windows(winnt)\system that is what he would have written, not
windows-system-directory. So I am sorry to say it is you that is wrong not
the documentation writer.
