Hi, It is a peculiar problem no body should have.
I have copied the contents of the pendrive to a folder created in a local drive.
After formatting, the same to ntfs, while i try to copy the contents, that it had , strange things were noted.
First all the folders and subfolders date changed to date.
I want original date to be maintained.
What is happening. I have formatted the pen drive before copying.
what would have been the cause? How to rectify it.
The copied items are showing the original dates both on folders and subfolders and files. pl
The Bottom line is "Check your hardware first if it supports the task you try".
