Is there a option that when a folder is copied, the copied version
has the same date as the original? With FARs defaults the folder
gets the current system date...
ExampeDir (1.1.2001) -> COPY: ExampleDir (8.12.2010)
I couldn't find the option in case there is one. Thanks a lot!

Re: Copy Folder - Folder Date NOT to change
A possible workaround: copy it as usual, then run the macro for Far 2.0 (Far 1.7x) (with this .REG file imported to the registry, it is invoked by pressing CtrlAltQ).
The macro copies the timestamps of all files from active to passive panel.

The macro uses keyboard shortcuts to access timestamp fields in file attributes change dialog.
These shortcuts have been changed in recent Far 2.0 builds, so the macro needs to be updated:

Thanks Igor! This Script works now, but not for nested directories.
Please consider adding a "Original Time Stamp" option in the Copy Dialog for FAR,
this would be excellent.
Thanks, Rob

Dear Igor,
could you please change the macro to change directory only if it's newer
than the original. Otherwise I would destroy the original time stamp if
I'm not looking correctly...

Copy Folder - Folder Date NOT to change
Just wanted to bring up that topic again... even though Macros are a solution, it would be great if there would be the possibility to copy the original folder date stamp with the Copy Options...
