File System Settings (Windows CE 5.0)
File system settings for Storage Manager follow a two-tier hierarchy.
Generic file system settings under the root file system key
Settings placed at the root file system key,
[HKLM\System\StorageManager\<FileSystemName>],apply to every mounted instance of <FileSystemName>. These settings provide values that apply to all profiles and to all auto-load systems.Profile-specific file system settings under the profile file system sub-key
Settings at the profile file system sub-key,
[HKLM\System\StorageManager\Profiles\<MyProfileName>\<FileSystemName>],are profile-specific. That is, settings at this level pertain only to mounted instances of <FileSystemName> on devices reporting the profile <MyProfileName>.
The following table shows the registry settings for any file system that can be set at the root file system level
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\<myFSD>.
| Registry value: Type | Description |
|---|---|
| Paging: REG_DWORD | Controls paging.
|
| Util: REG_SZ | Specifies the DLL name of utility to do format and scan. |
| MountFlags: REG_DWORD | This value is deprecated for Windows CE 5.0 and later. For replacement values, see Mount Settings. |
| Dll: REG_SZ | Specifies the name of the file system DLL. |
In addition to settings that can be applied to any file system, there are a number of settings at the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\<myFSD> level that apply only a specific kind of file system, such as FATFS, BINFS, and so on.
The following topics provide information about settings that you can use only with a specific file system:
- FAT File System Registry Settings
