On this article I learned and documented how to change an INI file on OS/2 and eComStation. A INI file is not a text file, so it requires an special software to edit it.

Remember first:

  • Backup your INI files first.
  • Make sure that the INI files are not "read only" before edit them.

Now let's look at an example:

Ini Editor

For this example I tried INIEditor from INI Tools and editing the file IBMLVL.INI to change some PATHS.

First I open the program and open the IBMLVL.INI file:

Then, I click on the "Lock" icon, so the options to edit the INI shows up.

Later I just select the field that I want to update and click the "Edit Icon".
