    initial v1  
    11The IFS name is UNIFAT and it is returned by DosQueryFSAttach. It is a global IFS variable, called FS_NAME, which identifies the IFS, but not the actual file system. I cannot return FAT12/FAT16/FAT13/exFAT because IFS name is UNIFAT (or FAT32, if /fat or /exfat are not specified). Or, do you mean I need to return FAT32, regardless of fliesystem (whether it is FAT12/FAT16/FAT32/exFAT). So, do you mean it is ok if FAT16 disk is reported as being FAT32?

     5How does it break it? Which symptoms?

     9FM/2 and AN widget can be changed. Which ones cannot?
     10As I mentioned above, FAT16 drives are reported as being FAT32 and I cannot do anything with it. Different kinds of FAT are handled by a single IFS and the single FS name is returned. I cannot distinguish between them. Only in CHKDSK, I did it somehow, but I cannot return different values for DosQueryFSAttach.
