NO Andy, running "dir /x" while in the "C:\Program Files\ESET\" directory (of
which there is only one subdirectory, "ESET NOD32 AntiVirus") resulted in this:
Volume in drive C is System
Volume Serial Number is 4C28-CC5D
Directory of C:\Program Files\ESET

Hi John,
But that's to be expected!?
If you ran DIR /X from within the "ESET NOD32 Antivirus" directory then it will
indeed display a blank short name for "ecls.exe" because THAT name truly is
LESS than 8+3 characters.
If you are trying to find the short name for "\ESET NOD32 Antivirus\", you have
to run the DIR /X in the PARENT directory of THAT subdirectory.
So,
DIR /X "C:\Program Files"
will tell you the short name for the "ESET NOD32 Antivirus" subfolder
(something like 'ESETNO~1').
Then,
DIR /C "C:\"
will tell you the short name for the "Program Files" subfolder (something like
'Progra~1' or 'Progra~2').
THEN you string those short names together and get something like:
C:\Progra~1\ESETNO~1\ecls.exe
(that's just a for instance, NOT your actual path).
You CANNOT get the full path by looking at a single DIR output of the final
subdirectory itself.

Andy, running DIR /X in the ESET directory (with the only directory within that
being the one in question) resulted in the BLANK short name.
