Qfecheck

[iN2Fun]

just wondering if anyone has been able to make qfecheck run and make a log on the first boot.

i got it to copy over to windows dir and put

%systemroot%\qfecheck.exe /l /q

at the bottom of my main_bat.cmd with a log entry at the end to see if any errors and i get no errors and no log. after it boots up i can run qfecheck with same switches and it makes a log but cant get it to work in my bat.

anyone try this?

How are you installing your hotfixes? from GuiRunOnce? There won't be any point running QFECheck from there as it needs a reboot before the hotfixes are installed correctly.

But if you're doing the hotfixes from svcpack.inf then I guess you can run qfecheck in guirunonce. Extract Q282784.exe to get qfecheck.exe you won't need any other files, then run qfecheck like so:

qfecheck.exe >> c:\qfecheck_log.txt

Edit: I noticed you're using the /l switch, this will put machinename.log in the directory where qfecheck was ran from. In your case, that would be in %systemroot%\machinename.log
