I haven't tried yet. Will take a look when I find time. Do you already have sample?
No, but I have used jShell to run various Linux shell commands, so I am assuming that it will work with "DOS" commands like "attrib" too. I'll look into it when I get a chance. I was just curious to know if there are any advantages/disadvantages of using one technique over the other.

Thanks. Imho, better to show the real example of Array("attrib +H <path_to_your_file>"), under Win and Linux.
This code snippet is a response to another thread for license software protection. If someone is going to hide a file in a hidden folder such as in username\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\xxx
I take another step further to make the file hidden. You may use any file path you like.
