Check file system

Postby paulga » Thu Aug 17, 2006 9:33 am

Hi,

Is it possible to check the current file system without writing a dll to check it? I need to check that the file system is NTFS, if it isn't I will terminate the install. I've looked in the help but can't see this mentioned anywhere.

Thanks

Paul

Hi,

There isn't a built-in command that does this...if there is an API call in Windows that returns this information, you may call it directly using the Call DLL Function command.

I have created a plug-in for this now.
