Hello,
When I create a folder, whether it’s a Word, Excel or other format, and then check its properties, I notice that it is automatically set as an "archive" file.
Does anyone know what this means and what the risk is of unchecking this property?
Thank you in advance for your replies.

    Hello

    I see that it is automatically in "archive" file

    I suppose you are talking about the archive attribute code, and that seems normal to me.

    If you are using a backup software that works incrementally, it uses this code to only back up modified files and removes the flag so that it only takes that file next time after a new modification, as any creation or modification of a file sets this attribute.
