    If that is something, what one sees in properties of the file, you can try use python/PowerShell/CommandLine scripts.

      Hi

      Unfortunately it's not resolved, I haven't been able to get any suggestions to work. Fabric would probably be the right solution but we're not in a position to move to Fabric yet.

      Thanks
