Unable to clear archive attribute

[viveksuraiya]

I have unzipped a JDK to the Program Files directory and back that folder up (incremental mode). Even though the folder contents are untouched, Cobian Reflector still copies some files over at every backup, and says that the archive attribute could not be removed.

Is there a workaround, so that the files in the untouched folder are not copied over every time?

If the archive attribute cannot be removed then the permissions of the file are set so that the user can read but not modify the sources.

Yes. The problem was solved if I ran Cobian Reflector in Admin Mode. As a long term solution, I moved the folder to Documents.
