TC7.5 b7/b8 - Date/Time issue on \\Desktop

sommer · Post by *sommer » 2009-08-06, 05:56 UTC

Beta7 and 8 are both unable to change date/time of files located on \\Desktop.

OS: Windows 2000 SP4
FS: ntfs
%USERPROFILE% has an other location than normal.
(Moved to other drive)

Desktops ACL grants full acess for me, so it could not be an rights issue
and Desktop is not write protected by any means.

Sorry, TC cannot change attributes on virtual folders in general. You by be able to change them via the Explorer properties (Alt+Enter).

The reason is that files on the desktop are actually located in various real directories (user's dir and 'All users' dir), but the function cannot handle that.
