The Edit System Files feature lets you view and edit text-based system files (for
example, Boot.ini) and save your changes locally or on the host computer. You
can also forward the file to others by email if the email program that is installed
on your computer supports the Messaging Application Programming Interface
(MAPI). An example of a MAPI-enabled email program is Microsoft Outlook.
Non-MAPI-enabled email programs might not support this feature.
Symantec pcAnywhere stores the system file in memory on the local computer
as you work in the Edit System Files window. When you end the remote
management session, pcAnywhere prompts you to save the file. If the file is
read-only, pcAnywhere confirms whether you want to override this attribute.
After the file is saved, pcAnywhere resets the read-only attribute.
