Enforce the Location of System Hive File (Compact 7)

3/12/2014

In prior versions of Windows Embedded Compact, the location of the system hive file was left to BSP architects. Starting with Windows Embedded Compact 7, the system hive file must be in the path specified by common.bib as shown in the following code example:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\init\BootVars]
"SystemHive"="Windows\\Registry\\system.hv"

If you override the default location, you may encounter the following error when booting:

FSDMGR!ProcessRebootFlags: failed cleaning volume!
