Re: A File's Last Access Time....



That helps. That is all I can find too other than the initial boot up
causing file access times to change.

I don't know if this helps:
When Windows accesses a folder on an NTFS drive it changes the access time
stamp unless you add the value NtfsDisableLastAccessUpdate to
HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\FileSystem (REG_DWORD), value data: 1
to disable.

I was wondering what default automated operations carried out by XP can
change the last accessed date/time?

I have the usual ones like coping, editing but it there anything that
changes the access time behind the scenes?

Thanks
