Windowsfilattributet

WindowsFileAttribute is a command-line tool used in Windows operating systems to modify and display file attributes. It is a part of the Windows Script Host (WSH) and can be accessed through the Windows Command Prompt or PowerShell.

The tool allows users to view and modify various file attributes, including read-only, hidden, and system attributes. By using the WindowsFileAttribute tool, users can quickly and easily modify these settings without having to navigate through the file system properties.

The syntax for using the WindowsFileAttribute tool is as follows: WindowsFileAttribute /read attribute [/ domain] /write attribute [/domain] file[@without path]

In this syntax, attribute refers to the specific attribute being modified or displaying, such as read-only or hidden. The domain parameter is optional and specifies the domain of the file, while without path is used to specify the file name without its path.

WindowsFileAttribute can be used in batch files and scripts to modify file attributes automatically. This can be useful for various purposes, such as setting read-only attributes on system files or hiding files in the file system.

It's worth noting that WindowsFileAttribute is available only on Windows operating systems that include the Windows Script Host, which is typically found on Windows XP and later versions of Windows.
