When using ntfs, you can turn off 8.3 filename creation. My understanding
is, vista will stop generating 8.3 filenames as soon as you disable it in
the registry, but what happened to 8.3 names before the registry tweak? When
will they ever get removed? or they will just stay there and become eternal
garbage on my system?
If I -- for some reasons -- decide to re-enable the 8.3 names, will vista
automatically re-generate the names? or there is extra steps to force vista
to do so?
Thanks for help
