    When is Microsoft going to FIX the DATE issues in File Explorer??


    Once upon a time the dates in File Explorer were dependable and correct Win95? When you copy a file, it should not change any of the dates on the file. The "Date Modified" or "Date Accessed" should *never* be before the "Date Created"...I restored all my files after a system crash in May and now EVERY file's date is 05-03 and the date created and date modified are completely RANDOM. ARGHHHH. Now I cannot sort meaningfully by date. There should also be some way to batch fix the files' dates. But short of going in one by one and fixing them, if there is a way, it is extremely obscure.

    :)

    Microsoft Internet Explorer renamed to Windows Internet Explorer ?

    When is Microsoft going to FIX the DATE issues in File Explorer?? wie1.png


    Since version 7 of the world`s most popular web browser - Microsoft Internet Explorer was silently renamed to Windows Internet Explorer.Such a step from Microsoft is not a surprise since Internet Explorer is part of the Windows operation system for a long time.Obviously Microsoft corp. wants to state that Internet Explorer is already considered as a part of Windows and not as an external browser (remember the IE and WMP law issues last year!?).

    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.
