Using FIleSetTime() to update the Date Modified tag on a copied file. I noticed that while it's updating the Modified time, it also updates the Created time.

$sFile = @DesktopDir & "FileSetTime Testtest.txt"
$hFile = FileOpen($sFile, 9)
FileWrite($hFile, "Test")
FileCLose($hFile)
FileSetTime($sFile, "20120101123456", 0)
msgbox(16 + 262144,@ScriptName, "Check the file properties.")
FileSetTime($sFile, "20120622245612", 0)
msgbox(16 + 262144, @ScriptName, "Check it again...")

EDIT: Looking at the bug tracker... I suppose I should note that the files sit on a NAS (linux)...

Tested my above code and it seems to work fine, so I suppose the NAS is the problem.

You’re on a boat with the man your man could smell like. What’s in your hand, back at me. I have it, it’s an oyster with two tickets to that thing you love. Look again, the tickets are now diamonds. Anything is possible when your man smells like Old Spice and not a lady. I’m on a horse.”

What happens if you omit the third param, and just let it use default instead of specifying the 0?

@JLogan, I just discovered that my above code actually works, but when targeting files on my NAS via mounted network drive, it happens =/

I just remembered... Linux doesn't save a "Created" timestamp for files in its file system. So by the looks of it... it's adopting the Modified timestamp, and placing it into the Created timestamp.
