-# File History Sample
-
-The FileHistory sample is a console application that starts the file history service, if it is stopped, and schedules regular backups. The application requires, as a command-line parameter, the path name of a storage device to use as the default backup target.
-
-This sample application uses the [File History API](https://docs.microsoft.com/windows/win32/devnotes/file-history-api). The File History API enables third parties to automatically configure the File History feature on a Windows platform and customize it in accordance with their unique needs.
-
-## Run the sample
-
-The name of the built sample application is Fhsetup.exe. To run this application, open a command window and enter a command that has the following format:
-
-`fhsetup <path>`
-
-The `path` command-line parameter is the path name of a storage device to use as the default backup target. The following are examples:
-
-`fhsetup D:\`
-
-`fhsetup \\server\share`
-
-If the specified target is inaccessible, read-only, an invalid drive type (such as a CD), already being used for file history, or part of the protected namespace, the application fails the request and does not enable file history on the target.
