FileOpen - Clear or Remove Alternate Data Streams? Topic is solved

[zcooler]

If doing this:

Code: Select all

stream := FileOpen("F:\Ny mapp\20180116_20-59-02_Discovery Channel_Gold Rush  Alaska - S08E03 - “Busted And Bushfixed”.ts:EPGDescription", "w", "UTF-8")
stream.Write("Ett nygift par bestående av en rik flicka och ★★★★☆ en fattig pojke ger sig av på en katastrofal smekmånad i Europa")
stream.Close()
MsgBox % FileOpen("F:\Ny mapp\20180116_20-59-02_Discovery Channel_Gold Rush  Alaska - S08E03 - “Busted And Bushfixed”.ts:EPGDescription", "r").Read()

...how could I clear (properly) or remove the EPGDescription stream programatically? If stream.Write("") does not clear it entirely (3 remaning bytes).
Can do it with poweshell, but not with AHK afaik.

Deleting the file is not my objective, deleting the EPGDescription stream only is, meaning when enumerating the streams (with powershell) it's no longer detected. Im after better ADS handling for AHK...if so it might be possible to build a really nice ADS application.

Who said delete the file?. Just specify the stream ... FileDelete filepath:stream
It seems that ReFS will only support up to 128K.

Thanks, that works

Only heard negative stuff about ReFS, hope it won't replace NTSF anytime soon, cuz in current state it's far from an improvement.

I agree with you.
