Syntax

Description

This command reverses Do not flush data and reverts to the default mode where the changed data is immediately written to disk after each Update files or Delete command.

The command sets the flag if the state of the 'Do not flush data' mode is changed and is reversible, restoring the previous state of the 'Do not flush' flag when reversed. If the previous mode was 'Do not flush data', Flush data will cause any modified data which has not been written to disk, to be written on the next Update files or Delete.
