Modified time not the same as EXPLORER in TCC

[Marc.Ottevaere]

Due to DST, the time displayed in TCC is not correct and can change depending on DST period.
The time in Windows Explorer is correct and never change.
Explorer use FileTimeToSystemTime() and SystemTimeToTzSpecificLocalTime(), this is the correct solution.
Look at the image: if you change the date, the file time is not the same ...

Another question: is there a way to show the seconds in the DIR command ?

Regards.

This is for compatibility with CMD.EXE, which also does it wrong.

I know that CMD is wrong, but why TCC doesn't implement the correct solution ?

Because TCC (or rather 4NT) originally did it the same way as Explorer, and we got dozens of complaints that it wasn't compatible with CMD.

If you want to display seconds, you should use PDIR.

Strange ... when you look at my screnshot, it's strange that the time change depending on the date you are.

Thanks for the PDIR solution.
