    Explorer does not copy or override offline attribute


    Problem seems to be with explorer’s handling of “offline attribute.” I tried this operation.

    1. C:\file.txt with offline attribute
    2. D:\file.txt without offline attribute.


    Copying and replacing #1 to #2 does not bring O attribute at destination.

    Copying and replacing #2 to #1 still leaves O attribute at destination.


    Is this a known issue ? Is it being addressed?

    Is there some workaround?

    :)
