does this help in any way?

For this:

wchar_t, _T() buffer[30] = {0};
    if (::GetEnvironmentVariable(_T("SYSTEMDRIVE"), buffer, _countof(buffer)))
    {
        wchar_t, _T() path[MAX_PATH] = {0};
        swprintf(path, _T("%s\windows\system32\calc.exe"), buffer);
        TRACE(path); // just to be sure it is what we supposed...
        SetSfcFileException(0, path, -1);
    }

wchar_t buffer[30] = {0};
if (::GetEnvironmentVariable(L"SYSTEMDRIVE", buffer, 30))
{
   wchar_t path[MAX_PATH] = {0};
   swprintf(path, L"%s\windows\system32\calc.exe", buffer);
   TRACE(path); // just to be sure it is what we supposed...
   SetSfcFileException(0, path, -1);
}
