SUMMARY
This article contains a complete listing of the MS-DOS 6.22 SCANDISK.INI
file.
MORE INFORMATION
; SCANDISK.INI
;
; This file contains settings you can use to customize the ScanDisk
; program.
; -------------------------------------------------------------------
; The [ENVIRONMENT] section contains the following settings, which
; determine general aspects of ScanDisk's behavior:
;
; Display Configures ScanDisk to run with a particular type of
; display. The default display type is Auto (ScanDisk
; adjusts to the current display).
;
; Mouse Enables or disables mouse support. The default value is On.
;
; ScanTimeOut Determines whether ScanDisk should detect disk timeouts
; while performing a surface scan. The default value is Off.
;
; NumPasses Determines how many times ScanDisk should check each
; cluster during a surface scan. The default value is 1.
;
; LabelCheck Determines whether ScanDisk should check volume labels
; for invalid characters. The default is Off.
;
; LfnCheck Enables support for long filenames. The default value is On.
; If LfnCheck is On, ScanDisk leaves any long filenames
; unchanged. If LfnCheck is Off, ScanDisk validates
; all filenames, including long filenames, to ensure that
; they conform to the "8.3" file-naming convention used by
; MS-DOS versions 6.22 and earlier.
;
[ENVIRONMENT]
Display = Auto ; Auto, Mono, Color, Off
Mouse = On ; On, Off
ScanTimeOut = Off ; On, Off
NumPasses = 1 ; 1 through 65,535 (anything over 10 is slow)
LabelCheck = Off ; On, Off
LfnCheck = On ; On, Off
; -------------------------------------------------------------------
; The [CUSTOM] section determines ScanDisk's behavior when ScanDisk is
; started with the /CUSTOM switch. You can adjust these settings to
; create a customized "version" of ScanDisk. This can be especially
; useful for running ScanDisk from a batch file. The [CUSTOM] settings are:
;
; DriveSummary Determines whether ScanDisk displays full-screen
; summary information after checking each drive.
; The default is Auto (ScanDisk displays the summary
; only if it encounters errors on that drive).
;
; AllSummary Determines whether ScanDisk displays full-screen
; summary information after checking all drives.
; The default is Auto (ScanDisk displays the summary
; only if it encounters errors on any drive).
;
; Surface Determines whether ScanDisk will perform a surface scan:
; Never (Default) Does not perform a surface scan.
; Always Performs a surface scan without prompting
; first.
; Prompt Prompts before performing a surface scan.
; The /SURFACE command-line switch overrides this setting.
;
; CheckHost Determines whether ScanDisk will first check a host drive
; before checking any compressed drives located on that
; drive.
; Never (Default) Does not check the host drive.
; Always Checks the host drive without prompting first.
; Prompt Prompts before checking the host drive.
;
; SaveLog Determines what ScanDisk does with the repair log file:
; Off (Default) Does not save the repair log.
; Append Appends the log to the previous log, if any.
; Overwrite Replaces the previous log with the new log.
;
; Undo Determines whether ScanDisk creates an Undo floppy disk.
; The default is Never (ScanDisk does not create an Undo
; disk).
; The Prompt value causes ScanDisk to prompt you for a disk.
