Limitations
- WinSession Logger 2.x, can't save keystrokes from any window of Internet Explorer(6.0.2900.00) with Windows XP and the patch Service Pack 2.It seems there were introduced changes in the hooks of Windows, this Windows's problem was fixed with version 3.2 and low level hooks.
- If there are more of 8000, 10000 files in the folder: data,
WinSesion Logger could not be able to save files, this is a limitation
of Windows FAT32 volumes, the author(me) i was thinking a few of days
ago that this could be a compiler bug. Always is a good idea to delete
files(logs) that are not usefull but your important log files save
inside the favorite
folder, with "add to favorites", now delete logs is more easy with the option of maintenance with ver 2.4B.
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
screenshoots 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 aprox 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) |
