When copying a directory structure via F5 with option "Preserve file/folder timestamp" activated the last access time of files gets updated - this is not what can be expected from the preservation setting.
The behavior is the same when using default setetings and no plugins. Is it intentional? How then can i achieve a true copy?

Last access time not preserved on copy
Re: Last access time not preserved on copy
I don't think it's a bug, time created/modified is preserved, I don't know if the accessed date/time can be presserved/changed.
Re: Last access time not preserved on copy
It IS possible to change all time values (Creation, Change, Access). Maybe the normal behavior of the underlying API function automatically updates the last access time, so it might be necessary to set the value again when copy function has finished.Dreamer wrote:I don't think it's a bug, time created/modified is preserved, I don't know if the accessed date/time can be presserved/changed.
The point is that a true copy operation should preserve all settings. For bigger file share operations i use ROBOCOPY, but i like to use FC for the smaller ones which can be executed interactively.
