Fingerprinting Files in Specific Directories

I found the documentation on fingerprinting confusing to say the least. Copying the checksum.exe into the folder I wanted to hash would give errors such as:

Error: Output path is potentially unsafe. Choose a path outside of SEP product directories.

Error: Unable to open output file(" c:\test\list.txt c: )

Say you want to fingerprint all the files in C:\Dell\Drivers\FTX9M and output the hashes to C:\test\list.txt

Run this from a command prompt:

\"Program Files (x86)"\Symantec\"Symantec Endpoint Protection"\checksum.exe  c:\test\list.txt C:\Dell\Drivers\FTX9M

I hope this of help to someone in the future.
