   /TRANSFER job name [type] [/PRIORITY priority] [/ACLFLAGS flags]          remote_url local_name                                       Transfer one of more files.       [type] may be /DOWNLOAD or /UPLOAD; default is download       Multiple URL/file pairs may be specified.       Unlike most commands, job name may only be a name and not a GUID.
   /CREATE [type] job name             Create a job       [type] may be /DOWNLOAD, /UPLOAD, or /UPLOAD-REPLY; default is download       Unlike most commands, job name may only be a name and not a GUID.
   /INFO job [/VERBOSE]                Display information about the job
   /ADDFILE job remote_url local_name  Add a file to the job
   /ADDFILESET job textfile            Add multiple files to the job      Each line of textfile lists a file's remote name and local name, separated      by spaces.  A line beginning with '#' is treated as a comment.      Once the file set is read into memory, the contents are added to the job.
   /ADDFILEWITHRANGES  job remote_url local_name range_list      Like /ADDFILE, but BITS will read only selected byte ranges of the URL.      range_list is a comma-delimited series of offset and length pairs.      For example,
       0:100,2000:100,5000:eof
      instructs BITS to read 100 bytes starting at offset zero, 100 bytes starting      at offset 2000, and the remainder of the URL starting at offset 5000.
   /REPLACEREMOTEPREFIX job old_prefix new_prefix       All files whose URL begins with old_prefix are changed to use new_prefix
      Note that BITS currently supports HTTP/HTTPS downloads and uploads.      It also supports UNC paths and file:// paths as URLS

   /SETPEERCACHINGFLAGS  job value       Sets the flags for the job's peercaching behavior.       The value is an unsigned integer with the following interpretation for the bits in the binary representation.           Allow the job's data to be downloaded from a peer : Set the least significant bit           Allow the job's data to be served to peers        : Set the 2nd bit from right
   /GETPEERCACHINGFLAGS  job                      Report the flags for the job's peercaching behavior.
The following options are valid for UPLOAD-REPLY jobs only:
   /GETREPLYFILENAME job        Get the path of the file containing the server reply   /SETREPLYFILENAME job path   Set the path of the file containing the server reply   /GETREPLYPROGRESS job        Get the size and progress of the server reply   /GETREPLYDATA     job        Dump the server's reply data in hex format
The following options can be placed before the command:   /RAWRETURN                     Return data more suitable for parsing   /WRAP                          Wrap output around console (default)   /NOWRAP                        Don’t wrap output around console
   The /RAWRETURN option strips new line characters and formatting.   It is recognized by the /CREATE and /GET* commands.
Commands that take a job parameter will accept either a job name or a job ID GUID inside braces.
BITSADMIN reports an error if a name is ambiguous.
Many commands are only compatible with Microsoft IIS servers (e.g. upload).
BITSADMIN is deprecated in Windows 7 and 2008 R2, it is superceeded by the new PowerShell BITS cmdlets.
Examples
Create a new download job:C:\> Bitsadmin /create /download SS64
Add a file that we want to download to the job and specify a location where the downloaded file will be stored:C:\> Bitsadmin /addfile SS64 http://download.sysinternals.com/files/PSTools.zip c:\PSTools.zipC:\> Bitsadmin /resume SS64
Check if a download job has finished and if so complete the job:C:\> Bitsadmin /info SS64 /verbose | find "STATE: TRANSFERRED"C:\> IF %ERRORLEVEL% EQU 0 bitsadmin /complete SS64

SyntaxBCDBOOT source [/l locale] [/s volume-letter][/v] [/m [{OS Loader GUID}]]
Optionssource  The location of the Windows directory to use as the source for           copying boot-environment files.
   /l      The locale. default = US English.
   /s      The volume letter of the system partition.           The default is the system partition identified by the firmware.
   /v      Enable verbose mode
   /m      By default, merge only global objects.           If an OS Loader GUID is specified, merge the given loader object within           the system template to produce a bootable entry.
BCDboot may also be run from Windows PE (Preinstallation Environment)
Examples
Initialize the system partition using files from the operating system image installed on the C: volume:
C:\> bcdboot C:\Windows
Set the default BCD locale to Japanese, and copy BCD (Boot Configuration Data) files to drive S:
C:\> bcdboot C:\Windows /l ja-jp /s S:
Merge the OS loader in the current BCD store identified with the given GUID in the new BCD store:
C:\> bcdboot c:\windows /m {d58d10c6-df53-11dc-878f-00064f4f4e08}

Display or change file attributes. Find Filenames.
Syntax      ATTRIB [ + attribute | - attribute ] [pathname] [/S [/D]]
Key     +    : Turn an attribute ON     -    : Clear an attribute OFF
 pathname : Drive and/or filename e.g. C:\*.txt    /S    : Search the pathname including all subfolders.    /D    : Process folders as well
   attributes: 
        R  Read-only (1)        H  Hidden (2)        A  Archive (32)        S  System (4)
   extended attributes:        E  Encrypted        C  Compressed (128:read-only)        I  Not content-indexed        L  Symbolic link/Junction (64:read-only)        N  Normal (0: cannot be used for file selection)        O  Offline        P  Sparse file        T  Temporary 
The numeric values may be used when changing attributes with VBS/WSHIf no attribute is specified attrib will return the current attribute settings. Used with just the /S option ATTRIB will quickly search for a particular filename.
Hidden and System attributes take priority. 
If a file has both the Hidden and System attributes set, you can clear both attributes only with a single ATTRIB command. 
For example, to clear the Hidden and System attributes for the RECORD.TXT file, you would type: ATTRIB -S -H RECORD.TXT 
File Attributes
You can use wildcards (? and *) with the filename parameter to display or change the attributes for a group of files. 
Remember that, if a file has the System or Hidden attribute set, you must clear that attribute before you can change any other attributes.
Directory Attributes 
You can display or change the attributes for a directory/folder. To use ATTRIB with a directory, you must explicitly specify the directory name; you cannot use wildcards to work with directories.
For example, to hide the directory C:\SECRET, you would type the following: 
ATTRIB +H C:\SECRET 
The following command would affect only files, not directories: ATTRIB +H C:*.*
The Read-only attribute for a folder is generally ignored by applications, however the Read-only and System attributes are used by Windows Explorer to determine whether the folder is a special folder, such as My Documents, Favorites, Fonts, etc. Setting the Read-Only attribute on a folder can affect performance, particularly on shared drives because Windows Explorer will be forced to request the Desktop.ini of every sub-folder to see if any special folder settings need to be set.
Viewing archive attributes 
The Archive attribute (A) is used to mark files that have changed since they were previously backed up. The (A) flag is automatically updated by Windows as the file is saved.
If the (A) flag is present - the file is new or has been changed since the last backup. 
The MSBACKUP, RESTORE, and XCOPY commands use these Archive attributes, as do many (but not all) 3rd party backup solutions.
Extended Attributes
File attributes can be read with fsutil usn readdata filename.ext
Constants - the following attribute values are returned by the GetFileAttributes function:
FILE_ATTRIBUTE_READONLY = 1 (0x1)FILE_ATTRIBUTE_HIDDEN = 2 (0x2)FILE_ATTRIBUTE_SYSTEM = 4 (0x4)FILE_ATTRIBUTE_DIRECTORY = 16 (0x10)FILE_ATTRIBUTE_ARCHIVE = 32 (0x20)FILE_ATTRIBUTE_NORMAL = 128 (0x80)FILE_ATTRIBUTE_TEMPORARY = 256 (0x100)FILE_ATTRIBUTE_SPARSE_FILE = 512 (0x200)FILE_ATTRIBUTE_REPARSE_POINT = 1024 (0x400)FILE_ATTRIBUTE_COMPRESSED = 2048 (0x800)FILE_ATTRIBUTE_OFFLINE = 4096 (0x1000)FILE_ATTRIBUTE_NOT_CONTENT_INDEXED = 8192 (0x2000)FILE_ATTRIBUTE_ENCRYPTED = 16384 (0x4000)
For example, a file attribute of 0x120 indicates the Temporary + Archive attributes are set (0x100 + 0x20 = 0x120.)
DFSR will not replicate files if they have the temporary attribute set.The temporary attribute can be removed by using PowerShell to subtract 0x100:
PS C:\> Get-childitem D:\Data -recurse | ForEach-Object -process {if (($_.attributes -band 0x100) -eq 0x100) {$_.attributes = ($_.attributes -band 0xFEFF)}}

One step file association.
This utility does the job of both ASSOC and FTYPE, in one step. ASSOCIATE assigns an extension directly with an executable application. This is done by automatically adding a new FileType to the system registry.
Syntax      ASSOCIATE .ext filename [/q /d /f]
Key   .ext     : Extension to be associated.
   filename : Executable program to associate .ext with.
   /q       : Quiet - Suppress interactive prompts.
   /f       : Force - Force overwrite or delete without questions.
   /d       : Delete - Delete the association.
A file extension is the last few characters in a FileName after the period.
So a file called JANUARY.HTML has the file extension .HTML
The File extension is used by Windows NT to determine the type of information stored in the file and therefore which application(s) will be able to display the information in the file. File extensions are not case sensitive and are not limited to 3 characters.
Example: adding a File Association
To add the File Type "SQLfile"=Notepad.exe and also set the File Association of .SQL="SQLfile" run this command:
ASSOCIATE .SQL Notepad.exe
Example: Removing a File Association
ASSOCIATE .SQL /d
Note that /d will delete the File Association but will NOT delete the File Type.
File types created by Associate.exe are always given a name in the form xxxfile, where xxx is the file extension.
