suggested fix expanding files

I spoke with A microsft rep about my expanding files problem. It seems microsoft has CHANGED the expand subprogram...microsoft needed to let well enough alone. The OLD EXPAND command worked fine...why did they change the way WINDOWS expands files?...MICROSOFT NEEDS to work on this EXPAND NEW command/sub program
