Title: TrID won't handle files with the hidden attribute set
Post by: Johannes R?ssel on October 05, 2007, 01:57:16 AM

I was a little puzzled when TrID simply said ?* Error: found no file(s) to analyze!? on a single file I specified which does exist. After removing the ?hidden? attribute from the file, TrID was able to process the file. This might be something that could easily be fixed :)

From a Command Prompt, just use the ATTRIB command with the -h parameters, like:

Code: [Select]

c:\temp> attrib -h myfile.txt
