Is this a bug ?
Try this:
Create a new folder in a directory containing some old files file1 and
file2 , let us say a text files.
Select the text file1 and drag it into the new folder and drop.
(Do all this on the right pane of the explorer.)
Now change to new folder and view the date created that is set on
file1. It is the SAME!
Next,
Select the file2 and right click and select COPY
change to new folder and do paste.
View date created on file2. It is changed to current time !
So what is the correct behaviour and why does it give different
results when one method versus the other. Although file1 and file2
came from the same source and were created in the directory newly
their timestamps are different.
I need proper behavior for a program I am writing.
Thanksyou
