    Download managers - keep file created date but modified=download date

    Seeking 3rd party download managers that : 1. do not change the file created date (or, at least, keep the server created date) 2. sets the modified date to download date. So, for instance, I download a file today, then the file has (for example) created date: 01-07-2019 modified date: 19-09-2022 My current download manager (IDM) can keep the 'server date' (so, 01-07-2019 in the above example), but the modified date will the be the same as the server date. Downloads are stored in a downloads folder, amongst many other files of previous downloads and other temporary files. The downloaded file is difficult to find then: it is somewhere amongst the others. In case of the modified date being the date of download, one can sort then on modified date and easily find the downloaded file. Thanks for any suggestions. Any suggestions?

    File Explorer Date Created and Modified not always correct

    Hi,

    The File Explorer may have encountered a system conflict that caused this issue. For us to start with initial troubleshooting, we'd like to know more information, kindly answer the following questions:

    • Which build and version of Windows 10 do you have?
    • In File Explorer, what does it indicate in the Date column? Does it show Date Modified or Date Created? (right click the Date Modified section at the top, which are the ones that has a checkmark?)
    • Which troubleshooting steps have you done so far?

    Kindly get back to us for further assistance.

    "Date Created" detail of files is updated to be the same as "Date Modified" whenever the file is modified and saved

    Hi Evelyn

    The error only happens with files created on the pc, not when i transferred from an external drives.

    I work with a lot of audio files and I've checked on other PCs; audio files will carry the basic date created / modified information.

    I happened to see my post replicated here: https://www.****/threads/date-creat...he-same-as-date-modified-whenever-the.613319/

    Xylee Del seems to suggest some conflict with file explorer.

    What to you think?
