NAME
       ntfsinfo - dump a file's attributes

SYNOPSIS
       ntfsinfo [options] device

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

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.
