Problem

The KFF Import Utility runs in Command Line mode rather than a user-friendly GUI if you directly run KFFImportUtil.exe.

 

Resolution

If you still have the KFF Import Utility shortcut created on your Desktop during installation, using that desktop shortcut will launch the KFF Import Utility in GUI mode.  Otherwise, do the following:

  1. Open a Command Prompt (as Administrator)
  2. CD to the KFF Import Utily installation directory (typically "C:\Program Files\AccessData\KFF_Import_Utility")
  3. Run the following command to launch the KFF Import Utility in GUI mode:
    KFFImportUtil.exe UI

 

Cause

The KFF Import Utility can be run in both Command Line and GUI modes.  Running in GUI mode requires using the "UI" switch.
