Hi I have some files on network share that I need to remove ReparsePoint attribute. I have tried to set those file attributes to 'Normal' but it didn't remove 'ReparsePoint' 

Clear-Host
$Path = "\\network\share"
Get-ChildItem  $Path -recurse -force | ForEach {
($_.Attributes = "normal") 
}

How I can remove 'ReparsePoint' attribute from those files?

  • Are you sure what you want to do? For me it seems that you trying to preform operation similar to "remove 'file' attribute from files". – ALIENQuake Jul 20 '15 at 11:39
  • I have some stube links that lost access to archive and I need to move them to other location for future reference but copy operation fails. I was told by vendor that i'll need to remove ReparsePoint attribute before I can copy those files. Above code is just example and will be changed just to find corrupted files. Just don't know how to what command I can pipe results of get-childitem to remove ReparsePoint attribute – Szafa Jul 20 '15 at 11:52

Looks like I found tool which works on ReparsePoint.

fsutil reparsepoint delete file_name

Clear-Host
$Path = "\\network\share"
Get-ChildItem  $Path -recurse -force | Where-Object {($_.Length -like 1022) | ForEach {
fsutil reparsepoint delete $_ } 
}
