    actual date when moving files


    I had to move files to another backup drive. Everything OK but when I am moving files the dates of file creation get changed to the date of moving. I really need the actual creation date.


    Help me to save the actual file creation date. Thank you

    :)

    few questions to narrow down the issue and to provide you better assistance.

    actual date when moving files

    EVGA GTX 670 FTW Signature 2 2048 MB

    Well that helps, but what will EVGA actually have listed 75-90 day from your date of purchase that is a true step-up? *Big Grin actual date when moving files :D
