If you want you can do it using nircmd setfiletime and tcbl to construct the command:
in the tcbl.ini you can set the folowing sections:

Code: Select all

[setFileDateCreatedAsModified]
ini=# %d-%m-%Y %H:%M:%S
ini=q
cmd=@"<PATH_TO>\nircmd" setfiletime "$f" "$#m"

[setFileDateModifiedasCreated]
ini=# %d-%m-%Y %H:%M:%S
ini=q
cmd=@"<PATH_TO>\nircmd" setfiletime "$f" "" "$#c"

in Total commander you can have for setFileDateCreatedAsModified:

Code: Select all

command:<path to>\TCBL
parameters: -i %L setFileDateCreatedAsModified

Ini file for tcbl is mandatory as you need to specify datetime format.
if you want to have a menu, you can use askparam to chose the ini section.
you can get nircmd : http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/nircmd.html
you can get tcbl : http://tccfestuff.free.fr/

Why so complicated?
Mark your files or dirs,
and use Files -> Change attributes.

Now fill in:
Change plugin attributes:
tc -> creationdate -> [=tc.writedate]

For doing the reverse, use:
tc -> writedate -> [=tc.creationdate]

Yes, that will do it.

And BTW,
when in doubt, just create temporary dirs or files, and try it, before doing it with important files.
You can see both, creation and mod. date, at the same time quite easy, by creating a custom column view, containing both fields.
(use the very same internal "tc" content plug-in fields)

thanks a lot
i always used total commander , but never known all its powerfull
you know i know if it possible have only 1 panel ?
i know total commander it's 2 panel , it's been always been
but to select and have max monitor space for a while i would like to have 1 panel for a while


ps can i have a custom column view with full folder size ?

...if it possible have only 1 panel ?

I don't think that you can disable one panel, but you can maximize one panel's size:
Drag the panel separator to the left or right (just hover with mouse until you see the special cursor),
or do a right click on the separator, where you can select predefined size relations.

ps can i have a custom column view with full folder size

You can still manually press Alt+Shift+Return in cust. columns, for letting TC calculate the folder size on demand.
For doing it automatically, install the DirSizeCalc plug-in.

...

I never use this attribute window as i cannot directly call the profile/configuration i saved as parameter to cm_SetAttrib. (And i like a lot Batch and console pgms

But I agree that it is a more elegant solution using only TC and easier .

About folder Size -> calculation always take time and can degrade TC responsiveness if you do not choose "On Demand" columns.
