VDS_FILE_SYSTEM_TYPE enumeration

-description

[Beginning with Windows 8 and Windows Server 2012, the Virtual Disk Service COM interface is superseded by the Windows Storage Management API.]

Defines the set of valid types for a file system.

-enum-fields

-field VDS_FST_UNKNOWN:0

The file system is unknown. The IVdsVolumeMF::GetFileSystemProperties method returns this value in the VDS_FILE_SYSTEM_PROP structure for BitLocker-encrypted volumes.

-field VDS_FST_RAW

The file system is raw.

-field VDS_FST_FAT

The file system is file allocation table (FAT).

-field VDS_FST_FAT32

The file system is file allocation table for 32-bit computers (FAT32).

-field VDS_FST_NTFS

The file system is the NT file system (NTFS).

-field VDS_FST_CDFS

The file system is the CD-ROM file system (CDFS).

-field VDS_FST_UDF

The file system is Universal Disk Format (UDF).

-field VDS_FST_EXFAT

The file system is extended file allocation table (exFAT).

Windows Server 2008, Windows Vista and Windows Server 2003:  The VDS_FST_EXFAT file type value is not supported.

-field VDS_FST_CSVFS

-field VDS_FST_REFS

-remarks

The VDS_FILE_SYSTEM_PROP structure includes a VDS_FILE_SYSTEM_TYPE value as a member to indicate an existing file system type.

Note  Additional constants might be added to the VDS_FILE_SYSTEM_TYPE enumeration in future Windows versions. For this reason, your application must be designed to gracefully handle an unrecognized VDS_FILE_SYSTEM_TYPE enumeration constant.
