[REQUEST] MS-DOS 6.2 Step-Up 3.5" disk
The MS-DOS 6.2 Step-Up was single-disk update patch that updated MS-DOS 6.0 to MS-DOS 6.2. This was not a full upgrade, and can not be used to upgrade any other version of MS-DOS.
Microsoft made this low-cost update avaialble mainly to fix serious bugs in their DoubleSpace drive compression, and add tools such as SCANDISK to fix the mess. (BTW, There was no MS-DOS 6.1 in order to avoid confusion with PC-DOS 6.1)
As I recall this update was sold in stores for only a few dollars. So I am surprised there aren't still piles of them around.
All of the copies claiming to be 3.5" I see floating around are actually resized 1.2mb disk sets.
Hint: An authentic 3.5" 1.44mb disk image would only have ONE disk. It was the 1.2mb media that had two disks.

I've found dumped it.
(Unfortunately original media was lost, but dumped as twice correctly before I lost.)
