NAME <\/a> <\/h2>\n

ntfstruncate \u2212 truncate a file on an NTFS volume<\/p>\n

SYNOPSIS <\/a> <\/h2>\n

ntfstruncate<\/b> [options<\/i>] device file [attr-type<\/i> [attr-name<\/i>]] new-length<\/i><\/p>\n

DESCRIPTION <\/a> <\/h2>\n

ntfstruncate<\/b><\/i> truncates (or extends) a specified attribute belonging to a file or directory, to a specified length.<\/p>\n

OPTIONS <\/a> <\/h2>\n

Below is a summary of all the options that ntfstruncate<\/b> accepts. Nearly all options have two equivalent names. The short name is preceded by \u2212<\/b> and the long name is preceded by \u2212\u2212<\/b>. Any single letter options, that don\u2019t take an argument, can be combined into a single command, e.g. \u2212fv<\/b> is equivalent to \u2212f \u2212v<\/b>. Long named options can be abbreviated to any unique prefix of their name.
\u2212f<\/b>, \u2212\u2212force<\/b><\/p>\n

This will override some sensible defaults, such as not using a mounted volume. Use this option with caution.<\/p>\n

\u2212h<\/b>, \u2212\u2212help<\/b><\/p>\n

Show a list of options with a brief description of each one.<\/p>\n\n\n
<\/td>\n\n

\u2212l<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n

<\/td>\n\n

Display licensing information.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n

 <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n

\u2212n<\/b>, \u2212\u2212no-action<\/b><\/p>\n

Simulate the truncation without actually write to device.<\/p>\n

\u2212q<\/b>, \u2212\u2212quiet<\/b><\/p>\n

Suppress some debug\/warning\/error messages.<\/p>\n

\u2212v<\/b>, \u2212\u2212verbose<\/b><\/p>\n

Display more debug\/warning\/error messages.<\/p>\n

\u2212V<\/b>, \u2212\u2212version<\/b><\/p>\n

Show the version number, copyright and license of ntfstruncate<\/b>.<\/p>\n

attr-type<\/b><\/p>\n

Define a particular attribute type to be truncated (advanced use only). By default, the unnamed $DATA attribute (the contents of a plain file) will be truncated. The attribute has to be specified by a number in decimal or hexadecimal :<\/p>\n

\"Image<\/p>\n

attr-name<\/b><\/p>\n

Define the name of the particular attribute type to be truncated (advanced use only).<\/p>\n

new-length<\/b><\/p>\n

Specify the target size of the file. It will be rounded up to a multiple of the cluster size. A suffix of K, M, G, T, P or E may be appended to mean a multiplicative factor of a power of 1000. Similarly a suffix of Ki, Mi, Gi, Ti, Pi or Ei may be appended to mean a multiplicative factor of a power of 1024.<\/p>\n

EXAMPLES <\/a> <\/h2>\n

Resize to 100MB the file database.db located in the Data directory which is at the root of an NTFS file system.<\/p>\n
