How do we set every file on a WINXP PC to a specified creation & access
date.
As part of my monthly cleanup, I already run freeware:
- Malware checkers (spyware, anti-virus, startup programs, etc.)
- Privacy cleaners (cookies, MRUs, tmp files, cache, downloads, etc.)
- Freespace wipers, etc.
I'd like to add a "touch" file-date program to this repetoire.
Basically, it could be a simple batch script, e.g. something like:
FOR %%f in (C:\*) do copy/y/b %%f+,, .> nul
Better yet be a Windows XP program which runs monthly to reset the file
creation, modification, and last access date to the first of the year
(or whatever) without any input required from the user.
Do you have good freeware-only suggestions for such a utility?
