    system32/control.exe return codes


    I can run an application with system32/control.exe from cmd like thiscontrol.exe /name "app name"And in case of success the return code of control.exe is '1'. At the same time if the application "app name" is not installed the return code is '0'. Can I consider this behavior correct and rely fully on return code '1' as an indicator of success? There is not much documentation on system32/control.exe return codes

    :)

    Fan control for 4870X2 broken in 1.17

    Fixed fan controls yes. Annoying profiles yes. Buggy code yes.

    I'd rather just set it and forget it as the feature list of RBE suggested it was capable of doing.

    system32/control.exe return codes

    How to gain full control over the system32 folder?

    Hello

    Thanks for your replies and concerns.

    If I type this in Windows PowerShell

    Code:
    I should get a list on screen of all MP4 files on my C drive. The file extension is irrelevant. Instead, I get this:

    That is, I do not have permission to access RtBackup which is a folder in system32 and so, I am prevented from working as I should be able to in PowerShell.

    If it's possible to have full control over that RtBackup folder - without having control over the entire system32 folder, - then that would be fine.

    How would I do that, please?
