System Configuration Editor, commonly known by its filename Sysedit, is a specialized text/ASCII editor for core Microsoft Windows configuration files (such as PROTOCOL.INI, WIN.INI, SYSTEM.INI, CONFIG.SYS, and AUTOEXEC.BAT).[1] This executable is installed in the Windows system directory: %windir%\SYSTEM (Windows 3.x and 9x editions)[1] or %windir%\SYSTEM32 (Windows NT editions).[2] Sysedit was bundled with and automatically installed by every version of Windows from Windows 3.0 up to Windows 98 SE.[3] Support was discontinued with Windows Me.[4] Sysedit features a multiple-document interface, opening all of the aforementioned configuration files at once in separate daughter windows whenever launched.[1]

Other Microsoft operating systems that include Sysedit are Windows XP,[5] Windows Vista (Service Pack 2),[6] Windows Server 2008,[7] and Windows 7 (32-bit only).[8]
