Ops Center

Hi Dhruv,

It does not happen for Ops Center, it probably happens for fsutil function on Windows, before format please try to disable the DeleteNotify function and post format you can enable it again this will reduce the format time, command is as mentioned below:

For disabling DeleteNotify

fsutil behavior set DisableNotify 1

For enabling DisableNotify function

fsutil behavior set DisableNotify 0

I hope this will reduce your formatting time, for more details you can google on this fsutil. Thanks.

we never did this before i mean it worked earlier have a look it says some SOM settings its issue with OPS center please confirm looks like issue with OPS center

so fsutil is safe
