Attribute Changer is developed in Delphi, but the direction taken by the owner of this product makes it no more an option for the development of Attribute Changer.

Shutting down the project is not an option and I opted to give Lazarus a try. Since December, I work on the conversion of Attribute Changer to Lazarus and only 10% of the code needed to be rewritten and the rest worked mostly out of the box. Some tweaking was necessary for the UTF8 string manipulations and the removal of Delphi compatibility mode in Lazarus.

All upcoming releases of Attribute Changer will be developed in Lazarus.

A very warm Thank You goes to the developers and community of Freepascal and Lazarus.

I’m pleased to announce that Attribute Changer 9 is available as a free download. It includes some most requested features from users, such as:

· Capitalize Name / Extension / Name and extension
· Redate folder date based on oldest file
· Redate folder date based on newest file
· Enable or disable strict mode for randomization of dates
· Modify symbolic links and junctions and not the target anymore

IMPORTANT INFO: In Attribute Changer 9, the “Include sub-folders” option on the “File Properties” tab has been removed. Due to the new advanced features “Redate with newest file” and “Redate with oldest file”, a full scan of all files is always required and the option did not make sense anymore. Use the “Include sub-folders” option on the “Folder Properties” tab to enable recursive processing of folders.

Please have a look at the complete changelog to discover all the enhancements made in Attribute Changer 9.

This version does not support Windows XP and Vista anymore. Attribute Changer 8.70 will remain available from this website if you are still using these versions of Windows.
