[[Laufwerk:][Pfad]Dateiname] [/S]


  +   Aktiviert ein Attribut.
  -   Deaktiviert ein Attribut.
  R   Dateiattribut "Schreibgeschützt".  read_only
  A   Dateiattribut "Archiv".            archive
  S   Dateiattribut "Systemdatei".       system_reserved
  H   Dateiattribut "Versteckte Datei".  hidden

Or You might use the ancient 'chmod.com' (no LFN though)
Usage: CHMOD [r|R][h|H][s|S][a|A] <file> [...<file>]
