Greetings forums' readers & helpers, ٩̢ ̗(Ӧ̮Ӧ)̢ ̗۶
The search feature in the Explorer of Windows 8 is not as strait forward, simple and reliable as the previous versions (even if the search in the sub-folders is selected, it doesn't always find something that are in them.)
So, I need a way to list in the Explorer all the files whose Attributes are set to ‘A’.
This is to find in one command which files (and in which sub-directory) I did not backup yet, instead of looking for them in every folder after changing the view to ‘Details’. You see, my backup process is in three steps:
① Once the chosen folder in the Explorer is in the ‘Details’ view, I click on the ‘Attribute’ tab, which brings all the ‘A’ on top.
② I select and drag them to an external drive.
③ Then, I change the attribute property of those selected files, i.e., from ‘A’ to ‘N’.
٩̢ ̗(̾̈́͡◑̾̈́̈́͜ ̾̈́̈́͡◑̾̈́)̢ ̗۶It would be much quicker to select-drag them directly from the results and then, to change their attributes without having to go to their respective folders.
