Limitations
If there are more of 8000, 10000 files in the folder: data, WinSession Logger could not be able to save files, this is a limitation of Windows FAT32 volumes, the author (me) suspected that this could be a compiler bug. It is a good idea to delete log files that are no longer useful, but your important log files should be saved inside the favorite folder. With the "add to favorites" option of maintenance in WSL ver 2.4B deleting unneeded logs is now easier than ever.
You could get more of 8000 files in a few of days or 10 months (it depends of your settings, for example if you take screenshots every second you will have a large number of files in 3 hours) inside the folder: data. If you experience this problem and your current data dir has approximately 8000 files inside your data folder rename this folder to for example data_old , now you must create another directory data.
Maximum Sizes on FAT32 Volumes
A FAT32 volume must have a minimum of 65,527 clusters. Windows XP Professional can format FAT32 volumes up to 32 GB, but it can mount larger FAT32 volumes created by other operating systems. Table 1 FAT32 size limits.This tables were taken from Microsoft Resource Kits
Table 1 FAT32 Size Limits
| Description |
Limit |
| Maximum file size |
4 GB minus 1 byte (232 bytes minus
1 byte) |
| Maximum volume size |
32 GB (implementation) |
| Files per volume |
4,177,920 |
| Maximum number of files and subfolders within a single
folder |
65,534 (The use of long file names can significantly
reduce the number of available files and subfolders within a
folder. |
In the real world you never can use
65534 , but you could use 8000,10000,etc. |
Every file created by WinSession Logger uses long
file names, then will be a moment in that no one file
could be created(data folder).
Table 2 NTFS Size Limits
| Description |
Limit |
| Maximum file size |
Theory: 16 exabytes minus 1 KB (264 bytes
minus 1 KB)
Implementation: 16 terabytes minus 64 KB (244 bytes
minus 64 KB) |
| Maximum volume size |
Theory: 264 clusters minus 1 cluster
Implementation: 256 terabytes minus 64 KB ( 232 clusters
minus 1 cluster) |
| Files per volume |
4,294,967,295 (232 minus 1 file) |
