Yes, you can observe a file's availability status using the fsutil
command in Windows. The fsutil
command is a built-in utility that allows you to manage various file system operations.
To check the availability status of a file, you can use the fsutil file queryavailability
command followed by the file path. Here's an example:
luafsutil file queryavailability C:\path\to\file.txt
Replace C:\path\to\file.txt
with the actual path of the file you want to check.
The command will provide the availability status of the file, which can be one of the following values:
AVAILABLE
: The file is available and can be accessed.NOT_AVAILABLE
: The file is not available and cannot be accessed.TEMPORARY_UNAVAILABLE
: The file is temporarily unavailable, but will become available again.
By using the fsutil
command, you can observe the availability status of a file and take appropriate actions based on the result.
