For starters, you need to locate the objects whose properties you need to change, browsing through your computer and selecting the node or drive in the ‘Explorer’ panel. The files that it comprises are then listed in a dedicated window.You can learn various ‘Selected Path Statistics’, such as the number of items in it, the amount of ‘Hidden’, ‘Read Only’, ‘Compressed’ or ‘Normal’ files and folders.Optionally, you can choose what ‘To Show’, either ‘Show Hiddens’ or ‘Show All’, while also being able to separate files from folders and display them according to their type.Modifying an object’s properties can be done either by right-clicking it and select the preferred setting from the context menu, or you by using the ‘Change Selected Item’s Attribute’ or the ‘Change Marked Items’ Attribute’ functions, as the top edge of the window.
