Accessing Files
The first time a file function accesses a volume and whenever a diskette is
placed in a floppy-disk drive, Windows examines the volume to determine its file
system. Thereafter, Windows manages all I/O to that volume through the device
driver supporting the file system.
The Windows file functions enable applications to access files regardless of
the underlying file system. However, capabilities may vary depending on the file
system and/or operating system in use. For example, the
CreateFile function includes a security parameter that provides no security benefits for
files not residing on an NTFS volume.
The Windows file functions that create, open, and delete files and directories
identify them by their names. These functions store or search for the file or
directory in the current directory on the current disk drive, unless the name
explicitly specifies a path to a different directory, disk drive, or both.
