Date modified column not always updating on folders


Recommended Posts

I just received a new laptop running Windows 11 and I have a problem with the "date modified" not always updating on folders...

When I edit/update a file within a folder, the folders "Date Modified" is not always being updated. It does not appear to matter which app I use to modify the contents of the file.

- The date modified DOES NOT change if I edit a file
- The date modified DOES change if I create a new file
- The date modified DOES change if I rename a file
- The date modified DOES change if I delete a file
- The date modified DOES change if I copy a file into the folder that doesn't exist
- The date modified DOES NOT change if I copy a file into the folder that already exists

Why don't file edits update the folder last modified time? Is there a way to correct this?
