WarpZip online help - Drives

WarpZip will ignore any drives you do not wish to work with. This will help avoid waking up an old rarely used drive that is usually spun down and at rest. This will also help speed program startup as it will not have to check drives that may be spun down, slow or difficult to access. Enter the drives that you do NOT want to be loaded by entering the drive's in CAPITAL letters with no spaces between them in the entry field on the "Drives" page of the settings notebook.

For example, if I did not want to load:

  • The floppy Drive A
  • The floppy Drive B
  • A zip drive used only for backups, Drive H
  • A network Drive J
  • The cd-rom, Drive K

I would enter  ABHJK  (all CAPS, no spaces) in the entry field and WarpZip would only search the other drive letters.
