Hide File Attributes Without Hiding The File Itself?
Aug 25, 2005Can anyone tell me if it's possible to hide the attributes of a file, without hiding the file itself. I've got a file in a folder, and even if I set the advanced security properties so that the 'Read Attributes' permission is denied, anyone with access to the folder can still see the access times etc

Sep 4, 2009I recently reinstalled windows xp (sp3 integrated) on my C drive and had yet installed audio and video drivers only. This PC has two internal hard disks; one 80GB with partitions C through I and other 40GB with a single partition J on it. All partitions are NTFS formated. Browsing folders on all partitions is fast except J where it is extremely slow.
To troubleshoot this, I ran Sysinternals Process Monitor (Procmon.exe) and observed some strange behaviour for explorer.exe. Every time I select a root folder on J for opening (using mouse or keyboard), explorer enumerates all sub-folders recursively which consumes several seconds if folder contains a lot of sub-folders and files. In the meantime, explorer remains unresponsive. Here is an example (merely selecting FreeCommanderPortable in J drive using mouse or keyboaad

Jun 7, 2005Im doing a clean, brand spanking new install on a machine that has no floppy drive. I have switched around the boot sequence in the BIOS to boot the CD ROM first, and that recognizes the disc ok. Windows formats the unpartitioned hard drive to NTFS. At first I got an error saying the NTFS.SYS file was corrupt, so I wiped everything out, and began again. This time I partitioned the hard drive first, and it seems to want to go futher, and I no longer get the NTFS.SYS error, but when it begins copying files, it hangs at about 18 percent when it starts copying 'driver.cab' and I get a Blue Screen saying PFN_LIST_CORRUPT.
100K File Recovery NTFS
Apr 13, 2010Who provides an excellent service for recovering 100K+ of files - NTFS; I clobbered a perfectly healthy drive by putting it in an enclosure that turned out to be a Maxstor Onetouch. 512GB partition is now 128GB. A local recovery service salvaged directories and 100K+ files, but most files contain binary 0's.

Mar 8, 2005I was reallocating them earlier... and something went terribly terribly wrong. (gremlins I say) I try to log into my user account, but it says it does not have access to any of the files (like the desktop, c:/docs and settings/username/desktop)So is there a way to fix this, preferrably an app that will be able to rewrite the file permissions tables on a large scale?
View 8 Replies View RelatedNtfs File Access Restrictions
Apr 17, 2007Using:Win XP MCE SP2. I just set up an sftp server on one of my computers for remote backup purposes. I'm using openssh and cygwin to run the server so it can be secure and all that but I'm still a little paranoid about getting hacked etc. Since ssh uses windows users for login usernames and passwords I created a new user in the user group so it wouldn't have any administrative privileges. The way I understand is that if that user has some sort of ntfs file access restrictions then openssh will respect that and won't allow anyone logged on to the server with that user name to access any restricted files and folders. I want to restrict this user to have access to just ONE folder on the entire system. I don't want the user to be able to read or write or execute anything outside of its home folder. Since ssh respects ntfs restrictions i assumed that that would be the best way to do it. So if it is, what would be the easiest way to restrict access to everything but that one folder, and if that is not the best way then what is.

Dec 25, 2007It's a shame that me did a grave error. I am in terrible shock for that I did the following:
a) Installed Sun Solaris Express x86 Developer Edition with a 7.5 GB partition.
b) There is Windows XP SP2 on the first 20 GB partition.
I wanted to toggle boot flag by using DOS based fdisk after the Solaris installation. That's where me screwed up I ran a bootable Russian language DOS tools. Instead of toggling the boot flag (option 2 in the fdisk), me accidentally (while taking an overseas call) selected (option 1) the FAT formatting the existing NTFS partition (fdisk ran for 1%, then me immediately stopped and rebooted. But, already damage done My NTFS got screwed up by me.....
File System Changed From NTFS To RAW?
Jun 29, 2005I don't know how this happened. But when I went to my D drive which is My Documents, the drive was empty. Though when I check the drive properties it shows that 18G is being used, plus it's showing that the file system is RAW. Not sure how it got that way because it should be NTFS. I am able to view My Pictures and My Music by viewing from the start menu and going to My Pictures or My Music, but when I go to My Documents it's empty.
Now my question is how do I recover those missing files? I'm assuming that they are around because My Pictures and My Music are two of the files that are in my documents folder. This just leaves 25% of the drive I can't view. I can't do system restore because I don't have the D drive being monitored, so I can't do that. I did a virus scan and a spyware scan and the system is clean. Another thing I noticed is if I try to save something to the D drive it will appear to be the only item on the drive, but when I click refresh it will vanish.
How To Convert RAW File Format To NTFS?
Jul 28, 2010I have a GM SATA 160GB External Hard Drive that is USB compatible.During a recent file transfer, a suspected Virus infection caused all folders to executable files which even could not be viewed. Failing in several attempts to recover any of the affected files, I resorted to various formatting procedures including Low-level formatting. RAW file format resulted and now I need an NTFS file format to be able to use the drive!

NTFS - File System Pointing To The Wrong Files
Apr 21, 2008A few days ago I noticed that when I tried to play a video file that I downloaded with VLC, it actually opened another video file on that hard drive (500GB Seagate, partition G: used for video files) instead of the one I selected. It had played fine earlier, so something must have happened to cause the file system to point to the wrong file.
I didn't pay too much attention to it at first, but then this morning I noticed that this wasn't the only occurrence of this weird error. When I tried to play a podcast episode with iTunes which is located on another partition and another hard drive (320GB Seagate, partition H: used for music files) it *also* was pointing to another music file on that same hard drive. Because this struck me as very odd I tried opening other files on these partitions. Some opened the right file, some opened wrong ones. I've done a chkdsk on both partitions. On the H: partition it did fix some errors, but G: seemed to be fine. Nevertheless, the problem remained. I've tried to google for this problem, but I'm having trouble finding a good search term. I've never had a problem like this before, so I'm unfamiliar with the terminology that might be used to document this problem.

Unable To Increase NTFS File System Performance?
May 5, 2004Last access time stampsXP automatically updates the date and time stamp with information about the last time you accessed a file. Not only does it mark the file, but it also updates the directory the file is located in as well as any directories above it. If you have a large hard drive with many subdirectories on it, this updating can slow down your system.To disable the updating, start the Registry Editor by selecting Run from the Start menu, typing regedit in the Open text box, and clicking OK.
When the Registry Editor window opens, navigate through the left pane until you get to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControl SetControlFilesystemIn the right pane, look for the value named NtfsDisableLastAccessUpdate. If the value exists, it's probably set to 0. To change the value, double-click it. You'll then see the Edit DWORD Value screen. Enter 1 in the Value Data field and click OK.If the value doesn't exist, you'll need to add it. Select New | DWORD Value from the Edit menu.
