Are there any GUI-based apps I can use to mass-copy files while leaving all folder dates intact in Windows?


Recommended Posts

I know that you can do this with commandline tools like Robocopy, but the issue is that I need to mass-select several dozen folders and selectively exclude specific folders or sub-folders, no real easy way to do that with a commandline.

 

But if I use standard Windows copy tools that's just going to change the dates on all the folders as it basically re-creates them on a copy.

 

Any freeware GUI based tools to do something like this?

Unstoppable Copier - may be of use.

 

Does batch copying and I think it will preserve dates and times.

    • True, but if they make such an update, there is no guarantee that the method to disable it will be the same, meaning that this tool might not work until it is updated.
    • Wolfenstein TV show in development at Amazon by Usama Jawad Wolfenstein is a very popular game franchise with its roots going back almost 45 years to Castle Wolfenstein in 1981. Modern titles in the series are based on an alternate history where the Nazis won World War II, and players are tasked with taking on the mantle of the badass protagonist William "B.J." Blazkowicz and taking the fight to Axis forces. Here at Neowin, we are huge fans of Wolfenstein and its slick gunplay. Banking on the popularity of the series, Amazon MGM Studios is currently working on a Wolfenstein TV show. Patrick Somerville will serve at the helm as creator, writer, executive producer, and showrunner. He has apparently been a fan of the games since he was a child, and he will be joined by some other executive producers too, namely Jonah Nolan, Lisa Joy, and Athena Wickham. All three of these have previously worked together on HBO's Westworld. Wolfenstein's current developer MachineGames has also offered up Jerk Gustafsson as executive producer. Not much about the plot is currently known, but the logline of the TV series does aptly say that "The story of killing Nazis is evergreen". It is unknown if the series will star B.J. Blazkowicz with a storyline inspired from the games or if it will serve up a fresh take with new characters. This isn't Amazon's first foray into the world of TV shows based on video games. The company has previously produced the popular Fallout TV series based on the game franchise of the same name, and has other similar projects in development too. These include TV shows for God of War, Mass Effect, and a Warhammer 40,000 project starring Henry Cavill. The release date of the Wolfenstein TV show is currently unknown but it should be a strong addition to Amazon's already impressive slate of content. Source: Variety
