    Windows Explorer dates

    Hello Frank,

    Irrespective of the date, time or day the file or folder was created or modified, it will show the date & time on which the content was downloaded on the PC. This is by design.

    The downloaded content always show the date when the file was downloaded from the website or a mail account.

    This design is by default.

    Let us know if you have questions.

    Regards.

  3. Windows Explorer dates

    What is shows is the date the file is moved from Outlook to storage on Windows Explorer. If it showed the date downloaded from the mail server that would be much better. How do I get it to do that?

    Hover over it with the cursor for some info and right click the file and select properties, created, modified and accessed.

    • Open the Windows File Explorer
    • In the search box, in the top right corner of the window type datemodified:
    • After datemodified: has been typed the "Select a date or date range" window will appear, select the date or date range for when you believe the file was last modified.
    • Depending on the dates this search may take a few seconds to a minute to complete.

  5. Thanks for the replies, but what I would like is a column in downloads that gives that information. Is that not doable?

  8. Okay, thanks all. Figured it out - shouldn't have been that hard. I wasn't in file or home rather than view at the top of the downloads page. I've been on Mac and just migrated to Windows 10!
