DOCUMENT:Q96621 20-JUL-1993 [W_NT]
TITLE :NTFS Files Maintain FAT Attributes
PRODUCT :Windows NT
PROD/VER:3.10
OPER/SYS:WINDOWS
KEYWORDS:
------------------------------------------------------------------
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Windows NT operating system version 3.1
------------------------------------------------------------------
Summary:
The Windows NT NTFS file system maintains FAT-style (that is,
MS-DOS-style) file attributes as well as Windows NT security
information. Unlike NTFS permissions, which are particular to a
specific user or group of users, FAT attributes are global for all
users.
When you store a file on an NTFS drive with Windows NT, you can set
its NTFS permissions by using the Permissions option of the Security
menu in File Manager. You can set FAT style attributes (read-only,
hidden, system, and archive) by choosing Properties from the File menu
of File Manager or from an MS-DOS command prompt with the ATTRIB
command. FAT attributes are maintained separately and are not listed
in the Permissions dialog box.
Note: FAT attributes take precedence over NTFS attributes. If a user
has Full Access (NTFS) privileges to a particular file but the read-
only (FAT) attribute is enabled, the user cannot modify or delete the
file until the read-only attribute is disabled. Any FAT attributes set
before a file is copied from FAT or HPFS drives to an NTFS drive are
copied as well.
