Solve : Windows XP changes folder modified dates?

Answer»

Can I copy or move folders with Windows XP without changing the modified dates like I can with Windows 2000? This has always been convenient when moving data to a new hard drive or new computer. Even using Windows 2000 to move the folders to my Windoes XP system across the network UPDATES the modified dates. I would appreciate any suggestions.Welcome to the CH forums.

Download XXCopy and try the /TCA /TCC and /TCW switches.. Switches list is available >>here<<

Extract from the list:Quote

The following switches control timestamps -----

/TTA Touches (modifies) timestamp of Last Access of src.
/TTA0 Preserves timestamp of Last Access of src (default).

/TCA Copies the timestamp of Last Access fm src to DST.
/TCA0 Uses current time for dst Last Access (default).

/TCC Copies the timestamp of CREATE Time fm src to dst.
/TCC0 Uses current time for dst Create time (default).

/TCW Copies the Last Write time fm src to dst (default).
/TCW0 Uses current time for dst Last Write time.

Good luck.
