Windows 10 always updates file date as Modified
Windows 10, Version 21H1, Build 19043.1288
As soon as I open a file to read, even if I change nothing, Windows Explorer shows the Date Modified as the date I opened it.
If I'm reading a file and do something as minor as adding a comma, the file has a new Date Modified date.
I find this troubling because as time goes by I can't easily find a file I know I wrote last fall, or about two years ago because none of the file dates are accurate. Is there a way around this? I would like to keep the file with its original date unless I actually make substantive changes and save them. How would I implement this in practice?
Thanks.
