Xcacls is used for ACLs (NTFS permissions), not attributes. The attrib
command also will not let you set compression or encryption attributes-
these are advanced attributes. However, for the original poster, I would ask
what is the reason for the need to disable compression- perhaps there are
other options. Of course, you could always just encrypt all the files and
then they wouldn't be compressible. ;-)
