Virtual File Explorer and c:\wtf.html

Virtual File Explorer

After dinner I checked Twitter and saw the following tweet from @marcesher:

It didn't take long for me to track down the cause of this problem.  In the Virtual File Explorer code on line 50 of Service.cfc there it was:

writeDump(var=q, output="c:\wtf.html", format="html");

My apologies to anyone who had downloaded and installed Virtual File Explorer.  To fix either remove the line in question or download and install again.

Personally, I thought it was pretty darn funny. Though I did wish it were more than just a few CFDumps. Like, something truly WTF-y. Or, I don't know, beer coupons or something.

Good stuff, Sam.

And by the way, the VFSExplorer is Rad! Well done.

@Marc Cool, glad you found it funny. Not sure how you missed the beer coupons in there...maybe look again? ;) Thanks also for the kinds words and glad you like it.

I wanted to fix it as I can see someone asking wtf is this file on my system.
