DOS - Too Many Files Open Error

WinMe - Setup to solve Too Many Files Open Error

Edit the system.ini file (windows directory)
Locate [386enh] section
and add the following line

PerVMFiles = 225

Save the file and then restart the WinME.

The maximum number you can use above is 225 while a lesser number enables only that many+30 files at a time to be opened as maximum file handles.

This is the Config.sys statement Files = nnn equivalent.
