What is Change File Time?

Change File Time

Change File Time is a lightweight application designed with a single goal in mind: to help users change the time attributes for files and folders, namely last created, accessed, or written time stamps.

Since this is a portable program, it is important to mention that it doesn’t leave any traces in the Windows Registry, and you can copy it on any USB flash drive or other devices, and take it with you whenever you need to perform this type of file management operations on the fly.

The user interface is really simplistic and packs only a few configurable settings. Unfortunately, you cannot use the “drag and drop” support for adding files to the list, so you should use the built-in browse button instead.

Change File Time supports batch processing, which means you can add an entire folder to the list and apply time stamps operations at the same time.

Once you have added a file to the list, the application automatically displays the information about it, namely creation date, when it was last accessed or written, and time details (year, month, date, hour, minutes, seconds, and milliseconds).

You can edit the time parameters manually by simply entering the values in the dedicated dialogs. On the downside, there is no help manual that contains information about the function of each built-in parameter.

Although at a first glance, it may seem easy to work with this tool, it is not, as it may prove to be pretty difficult for a rookie to configure the dedicated parameters.

However, Change File Time does what it says and manages to remain light on the system resources, so it doesn’t hamper system performance.
