Using string resources in conformance tests.

It appears as though you shouldn't be doing this in a conformance
test.  It varies enough that applications can't depend on the resource
ID or string value being the same in different versions of Windows.
Our conformance tests try to test for invariants across Windows
versions, i.e. behavior that applications may depend on or expect.

You might check the contents of the containing folder before and after
the command is executed, and make sure that at least one new folder
exists after the command is executed.
