FAT File System Registry Settings (Windows Embedded CE 6.0)

1/6/2010

The file allocation table (FAT) file system retrieves driver-specific settings from the registry.

You can place settings for FAT, Extended FAT (exFAT), and Transaction-Safe Extended FAT (TexFAT) at

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\FATFS

- or -

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\Profile\<MyProfileName>\FATFS.

In addition to the keys that you can set at these levels, you can set formatting options for FAT, TexFAT, and exFAT at

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\FATFS\FormatOptions.

For information about specific types of settings that you can use to control and customize FAT file systems, see the following topics:

For Windows Embedded CE 6.0, some FAT registry settings have been deprecated. For more information, see Deprecated FAT Registry Settings.
