Hi,

FreeFileSync may already do this but is there a way to preserve (or restore after copying) the file access timestamps such that the 'copied' file/directory behaves as an archived one?

Thanks

Hi Garry,

when it comes to file times, FreeFileSync behaves just like Windows Explorer:

- Create time is set to current time
- Modification time is taken from source file
- Last access time is set to current time.
