Canceling Setup During File Copy Process Continues to Copy Files over LAN Connection
This article was previously published under Q250082
If you start Setup from a network share and you click
End Task to cancel the Windows Millennium Edition (Me) Setup
while the file is being copied, Setup still creates the Install folder (Windows\Options\Install) and the Windows Me cabinet files on the destination drive. This occurs despite the fact that you canceled the Windows Me Setup.
This problem occurs because Setupx.dll queued the files for "file copy" and is copying the files when all instances of the "Windows Millennium Edition Setup" task are being canceled.
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.
To end the task for Windows Me Setup, press CTRL+ALT+DEL and, in the Close Program window, select each instance of "Windows Millennium Edition Setup" one at a time, and then click
End Task or press ALT+E.
APPLIES TO
- Microsoft Windows Millennium Edition

Community Feedback System
Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high
and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances
are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back.
Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what
didn't.
Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be
correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each
other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're
not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry
edits), please consult a professional.
Thank you for using kbAlertz.com Feedback System.
