Does pFileName conatins valid path here ? If yes, then there should not be any problem with file creation.Use GetLastError to narrow down the error.

try calling GetShortPathName before the create file function..

What happens if you run this code

wchar_t FileName[250]= L"e:\\Test is ok\\log.txt";

HANDLE F;

F=CreateFileW(FileName,
GENERIC_READ,
FILE_SHARE_READ,
NULL,
CREATE_NEW,
FILE_ATTRIBUTE_NORMAL,
0);
CloseHandle(F);
