On my pc w/Vista, I downloaded an older Office(95 or 97)(Microsoft Works, version 4.5a, for Windows 95)as the newer version of Office is so cluttered. Every time I bootup the computer, I get the note FINDFAST.EXE has stopped working. This is from Microsoft Windows, asking me if I want this fixed or deleted. How important is this FINDFAST?

Hello R,

The purpose of this software is to make Office applications open documents, etc. faster. The solution is to remove FINDFAST.EXE from the Startup directory in Start | Programs.

Regards,

Ax

Okey doke. I just wanted to make sure this could be deleted and it would be not a big deal. Thank you.
