Deleting Explorer.exe on Windows 98

Made a backup floppy of explorer.exe

Recovered windows 98 and worked fine . . .

Instructions:

- Deleting Explorer.exe in windows-mode will not work.

1. Open Autoexec.bat in Notepad

2. Type on the last line :
del c:\windows\explorer.exe

3. Restart

4. Error comes saying "Error founding Explorer.exe, You must reinstall Windows."
or something like that
