WinTeX Tips and Tricks

(1) Before using WinTeX 2000 for the first time set up the normal Oxford WinTeX 2000 user setup and licence as follows:

Start -> Programs -> Graphics Tools -> WinTeX 2000 -> Oxford user WinTeX2000 Setup.

(2) To restore the normal Oxford WinTeX 2000 user setup you may do the following.

Start -> Programs -> Graphics Tools -> WinTeX 2000 -> Oxford user WinTeX2000 Setup.

(3) If you experience problems, for example WinTeX will not process a known good LaTeX file, you can reset WinTeX as follows.

Clear the WinTeX information from your profile by deleting the WinTeX folder

C:\Documents and Settings\yourusername\WinTeX

Then reset WinTeX to its original settings as follows.

Start -> Programs -> Graphics Tools -> WinTeX 2000 -> Oxford user WinTeX2000 Setup.

When you're performing the above operations make sure that you're only logged in on one system to avoid inadvertently undoing the changes.
