Examples 18 and 19 show how EASY it is to snapShot a complete Drive

18) cssdir /$SnapShotList$/ c:\ /s > ssA
Take a snapshot of the complete C drive and save in file ssA

(Between examples 18 and 19 you could create a few new files or change attributes on a test file, or change the contents of a file on drive C, then run example 19. Then later when you run the examples 20 to 22 below, you will see what cssdir detects in /Sscm first hand)

19) cssdir /$SnapShotList$/ c:\ /s > ssB
Take a snapshot of the complete C drive and save in file ssB

Examples of detecting file changes between two snapShots Follow:

20) cssdir /Sscm /Sspf:ssA /Ssnf:ssB > ssDiff
Compare snapshots ssA to ssB and save default report of diffs to file ssDiff

21) cssdir /Sscm /Sspf:ssA /Ssnf:ssB /Lxut:A > ssNewFiles
