There are two types of detection methods for file triggers, these are “Immediate” and “Polling.” The “Immediate” detection method uses the Windows messaging system to notify Commander when a particular file is created. This requires the folder where the file is created to be on a Windows-formatted partition. If the folder is not on a Windows formatted partition this error will be generated. If this is the case, then you should instead use the “Polling” detection method in your task design. Note: AS/400 and UNIX systems do not use Windows based disk formatting.
