If this recent set of data is not found then it will prompt with the open dialog box. After selecting the data files then it normally opens these files. However if you get the error message "Put data disk in drive using file: FNW80EN.ENT" then do the following:

Open the Fnwin.ini file for that workstation in the C:\windows folder. Locate the recently used file line such as:
RecentFile1=G:\data\fn\client1
Delete this line and any other RecentFileX lines that you no longer need.
Save and exit the fnwin.ini file.

Now FN will open for this workstation correctly. Note, this will need to be done to any other workstation that was using FN before, where the most recent file (RecentFile1) has been moved.

This is not a problem with workstations that FN was just installed on it for the first time.

Also this problem exists only on certain network configurations and where the FN program files and the data files are on a different drive.

• Delete at "RecentFile" lines in C:\Windows\fnwin.ini on each workstation that is having this problem.
• Hide any DAT files that are "loose" in the Navigator program folder. Best way to do this is to create a new folder "LostFiles" and move any *.dat files to the LostFiles folder.
