      1. The Creators update. I mean build 1703. Typing in recdisk in run dialogue and pressing enter will shows error.

        recdisk

        Windows cannot find ‘recdisk’. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again.

        [OK]

  1. Aah, Let me teach you something… It’s recdisc not recdisk:)
    BTW again please fix WEI.exe’s keyboard issue is possible. Or at least let me know how I can do the same thing in CMD. Thanks.
