ntfsinfo - Man Page

ntfsinfo [options] device

ntfsinfo will dump the attributes of inode inode-number or the file path-filename and/or information about the mft ( -m option). Run ntfsinfo without arguments for a full list of options.

Below is a summary of all the options that ntfsinfo accepts.  Nearly all options have two equivalent names.  The short name is preceded by - and the long name is preceded by --. Any single letter options, that don't take an argument, can be combined into a single command, e.g. -fv is equivalent to -f -v. Long named options can be abbreviated to any unique prefix of their name.

-F,  --file FILE

Show information about this file

-f,  --force

This will override some sensible defaults, such as not overwriting an existing file.  Use this option with caution.

-h,  --help

Show a list of options with a brief description of each one.

-i,  --inode NUM

Show information about this inode.

-m,  --mft

Show information about the volume.

-q,  --quiet

Produce less output.

-t,  --notime

Do not display timestamps in the output.

-v,  --verbose

Increase the amount of output that ntfsinfo prints.

-V,  --version

Show the version number, copyright and license.
