The point is that if the TeX engine does not support spaces in filenames the check is going to fail. Now, recent MikTeX versions support spaces in filenames, but old ones do not, for example. Then, there may be other engines not allowing spaces. As it is now, the check would fail only if the file system does not provide for short names *and* the TeX engine does not support spaces in file names, giving a much lower probability of failure. > so everything seems fine on my side.
