);

Type: IUnknown*

Pointer to the IUnknown of the IShellItemArray, IDataObject, or IEnumShellItems object which represents the group of items. You can also point to an IPersistIDList object to represent a single item, effectively accomplishing the same function as IFileOperation::ApplyPropertiesToItem.

  1. Call IFileOperation::SetProperties to declare the specific properties to be set and their new values.
  2. Call IFileOperation::ApplyPropertiesToItems to declare the items whose property values are to be set.
  3. Call IFileOperation::PerformOperations to apply the properties to the items.
