For example, if AFU is unable to locate UFI files, itdisplays an error message and exits. On exit, the AFU returns its exitstatus—zero for success or a non-zero code for an error—in the DOSenvironment variable ERRORLEVEL. If you run the AFU fromwithin a DOS batch file, the batch file can examine the AFU’s exitstatus using the DOS command IF ERRORLEVEL 1 to take action ifthe AFU exited with an error.
