There was a time, when files marked as Temporary were not shown in Cygwin. The ATTRIB command can't show/change this attribute. > As such, my shell scripts broke whenever they ran in directories where > those files were unaccessible via bash. > After diagnosing this for several months, I almost wanted to give up > and live with this, putting unnecessary workaround in my code so the > scripts would run. You could use Far manager[1] f.e. to show/set more attributes.
