I would like to know if there is a way to see the whole name of a file or Directory when booting with DOS boot disk. To clarify I would like to see PROGRAM FILES and not PROGRA~1.

Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Vince,
Without some program to show you a directory tree (Norton Change Directory) or the like, there isn't a way to display long file names in DOS to my knowledge.
Sorry.

Best Regards,

Tony
