Changing properties of one or multiple files is easy as pie if you’re using the right piece of software, and that’s why File Properties could really come in handy.

As you may guess just by reading its name, File Properties is a tool developed to help you modify file properties, playing the role of a much faster alternative to the standard built-in Windows tool.

The main window of the app is all you need because it groups absolutely all options, thus taking the most out of its multi-panel design.

You thus get dedicated panels for selecting folders and files, but also for modifying properties of one or multiple items.

File Properties allows you to change file name, extension, creation, last access and last write times, as well as attributes. You can for example make a file read-only, hide it, turn it into a system file or identify it as an archive.

The good thing is that File Properties can automatically create a backup of any processed file, so you’re on the safe side in case something bad happens.

The renaming process doesn’t take much time, but instead we had some problems with the main window. It’s not resizable, which is quite a serious issue, given the fact that long filenames are barely visible in the small panels.

But overall, File Properties may help a handful of users, although it’s obvious that most of them might only use the batch processing tool. Changing file properties can be easily done via the built-in Windows tool, so batch processing seems to remain the ace up its sleeve.
