Description
===========
FolderTimeUpdate is a simple tool for Windows that scans all files and
folders under the base folder you choose, and updates the 'Modified Time'
of every folder according the latest modified time of the files stored in
it.
This tool might be useful if, for example, you backup a cluster of
folders and then restore them into another disk, but the backup program
doesn't restore the original modified time of the folders.
System Requirements
===================
This utility works on any version of Windows, starting from Windows 2000
and up to Windows 8. Both 32-bit and 64-bit systems are supported.
Versions History
================
* Version 1.01:
o Fixed to display the main window properly when using large fonts
settings.
* Version 1.00 - First release.
Start Using FolderTimeUpdate
============================
FolderTimeUpdate doesn't require any installation process or additional
dll files. In order to start using it, simply run the executable file -
FolderTimeUpdate.exe
After running FolderTimeUpdate, you can choose the desired base folder
and the other options and then click the 'Start' button to start updating
the modified time of all folders.
If you're not totally sure that the 'Modified Time' change is right for
you, you can choose the 'Simulation Mode' option. When 'Simulation Mode'
is on, FolderTimeUpdate will only display the changes of the modified
time that will be made for all folders, but without actually applying
these changes.
Translating FolderTimeUpdate to other languages
===============================================
In order to translate FolderTimeUpdate to other language, follow the
instructions below:
1. Run FolderTimeUpdate with /savelangfile parameter:
FolderTimeUpdate.exe /savelangfile
A file named FolderTimeUpdate_lng.ini will be created in the folder of
FolderTimeUpdate utility.
2. Open the created language file in Notepad or in any other text
editor.
3. Translate all string entries to the desired language. Optionally,
you can also add your name and/or a link to your Web site.
(TranslatorName and TranslatorURL values) If you add this information,
it'll be used in the 'About' window.
4. After you finish the translation, Run FolderTimeUpdate, and all
translated strings will be loaded from the language file.
If you want to run FolderTimeUpdate without the translation, simply
rename the language file, or move it to another folder.
