    "The syntax of the file name, directory or volume is not correct."


    In Audit mode, if I run the %SystemRoot%\System32\Cmd.exe /c cleanmgr /sageset:65535 & cleanmgr /sagerun:65535 command from the Command Prompt, the "Disk Cleanup Settings" window is displayed. So, I select all the items and press Ok.

    Now, before the prompt is displayed again, the "The syntax of the file name, directory or volume is not correct." message appears.

    Why?

    Thanks

    Bye

  3. The filename , directory name , or volume lable syntax is incorect Microsoft Visual C++ 2010

    Hi Stefan,





    This can occur when languages other than the native operating system language is used. However, this issue you're having with Microsoft Visual C + + is better suited for the IT Pro audience on MSDN. Please post your query on

    MSDNVisual C + + forum
    .



    Let us know if you have other concerns.

    I have no clue what all that is, but I was just randomly browsing in this forum and clicked your post. I saw that line you have in bold and saw a number that looked almost as familiar as another number that I see more often. You have 65535, yet I've seen a lot of 65536 before (which is 2 to the sixteenth power).

    I tried to write the %SystemRoot%\System32\Cmd.exe /c cleanmgr /sageset:65536 & cleanmgr /sagerun:65536 command but the "The syntax of the file name, directory or volume is not correct." message is displayed the same. Why?

    Thanks

    Bye
