khan Posted May 1, 2008 Posted May 1, 2008 This tool is is really great. This is an Administrative tool. I never give formating permissions to Users Account. Can you Put this tool (HPUSBF.EXE, HPUSBFW.EXE) %windows%\System32 foler,It will be more appreciating if we launch it from WinXP Control panel only. Quote

Can we use this tool on usb discs other than HP?Shure that's what it makes this tool so handy and nice! Quote
khan Posted May 2, 2008 Posted May 2, 2008 Can we use this tool on usb discs other than HP?Yes this tool works on almost all standard USB Flash Memories. I like this tool because windows does not has NTFS Formating on USB Flash Memory. Quote
