owauser.wsf fails on ExchangeServers.txt file

I am trying to run owauser.wsf on my EV server (2008 x64) and it get's past assigning user right and then I get ERROR: ExchangeServers file does not exist. Please create the file and re-run this script. I an running cmd as administrator and have a ExchangeServer.txt file in C:\Program Files (x86)\Enterprise Vault with a single ip address for my Exchange 2003 server. Is there a issue running this on x64 install with the x86 folder, maybe the script isn't checking the location it is being run from?

    Have you tried to run cmd as administrator in 64-bit mode or 32-bit mode (%windir%\SysWoW64\cmd.exe)?
    Another thing I would double check is if the file name is ExchangeServers.txt NOT ExchangeServers.txt.txt if Windows is hiding "known extensions".

    Is it called ExchangeServer.txt or ExchangeServers.txt?

    It needs to be ExchangeServers.txt

    Always a stupid mistake, thought I had file extensions always showing. Easy fix, thanks Frank.
