Yes Tian, Diskpart.efi doesnot need input arguments. I tried *efifmt.efi
blk8 /FS:FAT *. But the same result. The application did not do anything.
It is expected to print help menu when running EFIFMT.efi without any
arguments. I downloaded UDK2010 and ran the Nt32 emulated environment.
There when i run EFIFMT.efi it is displaying the help menu as expected.
