Default Registry Settings for FAT File Systems (Compact 2013)
3/26/2014
The following registry code, taken from common.reg, shows default registry settings for FAT (file allocation table) file systems.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\FATFS]
"FriendlyName"="FAT FileSystem"
"Dll"="exfat.dll"
"DisableAutoFormat"=dword:1
"DisableAutoScan"=dword:1
"Paging"=dword:1
"EnableCache"=dword:1
"CacheSize"=dword:0
"Util"="fatutil.dll"
"CacheDll"="diskcache.dll"
"LowStorageThreshold"=dword:A
Remarks
FATFS functionality is implemented in the file exfat.dll.
To implement ExFAT functionality, you must set "FormatExFat"=dword:1
in the registry. To implement TFAT functionality, you must set "FormatTFAT"=dword:1
in the registry. Otherwise, the functionality defaults to FAT. The change will not take place until the storage media is formatted with the new specification.
Note
The HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\EXFAT registry key is not supported in Windows Embedded Compact 2013.
