Using Version 7.0, just upgraded, when syncing files with a Remote Desktop's linked drives. (I've yet to try this on local drives.) The generated files modification time value was precisely 6 hour behind the original's.

Of course, this has FreeFileSync saying the new files are older that the others and wishes to re-sync them.

I probably should add that 6 hours is also the time offset from Universal Time that our time zone is set for: Mountain Time US/Canada [-7 hours] + daylight savings time [+1 hour].

If it makes any difference one of the Machines is running XP Pro the other Windows 7 Pro.

Are modification times preserved when copying with Windows Explorer?
