I had bought an orginal floppy 1.2MB of the game
The games: Summer Challenge Accolade 1992.
But that floppy lost all of his data. Now i want to put the game back on that floppy.. but that floppy have 1.2MB. But only the summer.exe is about 1.44mb.. how did the game maker getting this game on this floppy?

Could anybody knows where i can get the smaller files of this game?

Is the 1.44MB exe a sfx self-extracting packed one?

Try packing the executables with some exe-packer (UPX for instance). You may get lucky.

You probably downloaded a different version than the one that was distributed on 1.2 MB disks.

Wherever you normally find illegal downloads of old games. 😜

This thread can be closed.. I have already solved the problem.. With the new floppy drive i could red it..
It had one file on it.. So i recoverd it and the games seems the be working perfect!..
