A wait I think that is the famous Daylight saving issue.

All file dates are stored in the file system as UTC (except Fat32..and some other old filesystem)
When a date is shown the date is normally translated your timezone plus DTS (daylight saving).

Problem is that when you view a date that is 1-May 2025 11:00, (Summer time, DST) but you view in during normal time (NO DST)

Should the date be shown with or without DST. both are correct. depending on view point.

In Exploer Panel settings. under Date / Time format. There is an option for "Adjust datetime for DST"

The columns.. are both the date columns the extended columns ? or are modified the standard "date" column. ?
If you enable the standard date column and extended date modified column, do they show same or different time ?

If it is extended modified date column.. Have you forced a refresh ?,  A lot of the extended column will cache there values.. and a force refresh will reload them

Also the filesystem is normal NTFS ? or mapped to network share ? or FAT32/FatEx filesystem ?

Thanks for your reply.

I open MultiCommander and see a file manager interface. I select the file you see selected in file_mgr.jpg. When I choose TOOLS > CHANGE PROPERTIES (dialog(tools-change_prop).jpg), I see the created and modified date and times I set earlier today for that file. But as you can see, in file_mgr.jpg, the times displayed in the file manager are one hour earlier.

Let me add that the date and time on the file originally were altogether different before I changed them today. I cannot honestly tell you whether they were accurate. But I just did a quick test, creating a new little text file, and the date and time (both created and modified) display correctly in the file manager. I change the created and modified times and they displayed fine.

One last thing just occurred to me regarding the troublesome file (2024estJan5.ods): I restored that file today from a cloud backup (CrashPlan). Hence my desire to have the file reflect when it was really created and modified. Could this have anything to do with this strange behavior?

Happily this is not mission critical stuff. Still, inquiring minds want to know....

Thanks again for any input,
Jeanne

Hello, I installed Multicommender and chose the Dutch language. But when I close the program and restart it, it is in English. How can I solve this.

I adjusted the creation and modification date and time on a file. The dialog box reflects those changes but MultiCommander's file manager displays one hour earlier in each case. It's as if the program thinks I'm in a different time zone. I just updated MultiCommander but no difference. The dialog box and the file display tell different times.

But I have no problems with any other dates in any other programs. How can i troubleshoot this?

Thanks very much,

In my version, Explorer panel settings > Display > Sorting and Columns does not have the option "Auto-fit columns to view width," only "Autosize columns." Is that the same option with a different name?
