Hello! I am trying to run Quick BASIC version 4.5 on my old Windows 98 machine, but I keep receiving an error about Windows not finding its "Working Directory". After I cleaned some files on the machine, I recieved this error. So, I downloaded and unzipped a new copy, but it still says that Quick Basic can't find its files. Can anyone help? =(

Qb 4.5 is warez/abandonware. You may be reprimanded... Delete this thread if you value your account!

I think the biggest question here is WHY WOULD YOU WANT TO USE IT?

Yknow... maybe it's because... I don't know... piracy is stealing software, and we're software developers. It's like owning a Safeway and shoplifting cans of soup from Albertsons to sell at your own store.

It's just not right.

Use FreeBASIC, it will let you run QB programs with little or no modification, and it's completely free!
EDIT: It also supports lots of screen modes other than the ones QB has.
