Running 16 bit applications from Windows 2008 and 2012 file server
Moving data from an older file server to the new Windows Server 2008 or 2012 may result in the older 16-bit applications running from a network share failing to obey us. Although the system on which we are trying to run the application from a network share does not change, a message may appear informing that the application or one of its components has not been found:
Can't run 16-bit Windows program
Cannot find file X: \ directory_name \ file_name.exe (or one of this components)
