Element-IT FileMetadata .NET control allows users to add and modify metadata for files and folders on NTFS file system using Alternate Data Streams technology. This software simplifies metadata management.
One of the standout features of this control is its use of Alternate Data Streams technology. This allows metadata to move with the file and remain independent of the file name. Additionally, there is no need for any extra databases or file body, as the metadata is stored with the file in the NTFS hidden stream.
The control supports the modification of standard metadata such as Title, Subject, Category, Keywords, Comments, Author, as well as an unlimited number of custom metadata options. These can be of various types, including string, numeric, and binary data.
A further benefit of Element-IT FileMetadata .NET control is that any modifications made to the metadata do not affect the original file date modified. This ensures that the integrity of the file is maintained, and that it remains easily identifiable and accessible.
Overall, Element-IT FileMetadata .NET control is an excellent solution for managing, organizing, and utilizing file and folder metadata. Its powerful features, ease of use, and compatibility with NTFS file systems make it an essential tool for any developer or organization looking to maximize the value of their files.
