Hi all,
I'm using CM2012 with SP1 to deploy Windows 7 with SP1, and I need to enable the 8.3 file & folder names in the file system. I know I have to do this right at the beginning immediately after the format step.
I know MS have recently changed the 8.3 names to be disabled by default, as outlined here: http://scug.be/sccm/2013/01/15/configmgr-2012-sp1-the-8dot3name-settings-are-disabled-on-the-volumes-upon-partitioning-and-formatting-of-the-local-disk/
I hope my question is a simple one.
What files do I need to create an fsutil package (or what components to I need to add to my WinPE image) in order to be able to run the "fsutil 8dot3name set 0" command.
I've already attempted to create the package myself by copying the fsutil.dll and fsutil.exe files from C:\Windows\System32 on a Windows 8 machine, but when I execute it in WinPE 4.0, I get the error "Unable to format message for id 400002710 - 13d". I thought I'd then get sleuthy and use procmon to monitor what dll's fsutil.exe calls from the command prompt on a fully built workstation, then I copied all those DLL's, but alas, I still get the same error.
According to that link above, "Steve' (in the comments) has created a package. My comment on there is awaiting moderation, so in lieu of that I thought I would also ask here incase someone has done this before.
Likewise, if fsutil isn't the best way to do this from WinPE 4.0, but someone has a powershell/vbscript that does the same thing - please post up here.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
