I just realized that I don't have a clue how to change the date and
time on files.
Request two things:
How to manually change the date and time of files AND
when I download something it keeps its own original date and time but
I need it to inherit my system time so I can sort and see what is new
since my last backup.

Any help is most appreciated,

do a google search for "touch" utilities. That's the common name for
programs that allow you to specify a date/time for a file.

FYI
In all windows/Dos the modified date can be changed by

copy filename.ext+,,

But not the Create date
