Have been running DOSBox successfully for some time, but after resolving an issue with Windows 10 - corruption of the single User profile corrected by creating a new profile and deleting the old - it so happened that DOSBox stopped working.
Briefly the application I run under DOSBox is GWBasic. The application resides on my C:\ drive in a folder of the same name. The DOSBox application and the Options (CFG) file have always resided in C:\DOSBox.
It appears that when I ran DOSBox for the first time under the new User profile, being a first time event DOSBox duly created a new Options file overwriting the existing. I say this because it was all default options and the [autoexec] lines were missing.
Completed the [autoexec] with the following two lines:
mount C C:\GWBasic REM Created the new C:\ drive for DOSBox
C:\GWBasic REM Loaded the GWBasic application
Confirmed these lines were identical to those in a backup copy of the earlier Options file.
What is happening is that GWBasic is loading, I can press F3 which prompts me to enter under program control the file name of my application, all of which reside in the GWBasic folder, but when I press Enter I get the message "File not found". Yet a check of the GWBasic folder confirms it is there!
On closing GWBasic the directory now appears as Z:\ whereas before it was always c:\. This suggests the mount function is not working as it has before.
Will appreciate assistance to resolve this issue
