Strangely I don't see you reporting all the bugs you found into the TRACKER nor participating in bug tests and discussions

BTW, EDR-DOS doesn't have any of those 2 "critical-data-trashing-BUG's" either (it has many minor bugs, though: NTLFN-Find-First, NTLFN-Find-Next, and GetFileInfoByHandle still return garbage attributes, and NTLFN-Peek-Attributes ($7143) doesn't work at all ....).
