Copying Files Modified After MM/DD?YY To A Different Computer
I know how to get a list of "Files Modified After MM/DD/YYYY" using File
Explorer, but how do I copy them to another computer on the same network? Thanks. |

Not at a Win10 host to check but after you do the filter to list the files, you can't hit Ctrl+A to select those files? You could use robocopy.exe. Run "robocopy /?" in a command shell to get information on how to use it. However, you don't give a date. You specify the age in days using the /minage or /maxage arguments. Alternatively you can use the xcopy command in a shell. It had a /d:m-d-y argument to process files on or after the specified date. Or is the detail about selecting the files not the critical issue and instead you are really asking how to copy any file from your host to another host on your network? |

You should change to DD/MM/YYYY as MM/DD/YYYY makes no sense. The format is determined by Windows Search. The syntax is emitted by the calendar widget. It's not arbitrary, with this particular method. To change that, there is likely a setting somewhere else, that changes what the calendar spits out, and what the searcher accepts (both would need to be changed at the same time to be consistent). Later, if you wanted to manually enter the date info, without the calendar widget, you can do it in the new format you selected. https://tr3.cbsistatic.com/hub/i/r/2.../FigF21414.png datemodified: MM/DD/YYYY Today Yesterday This week Last week This month ... You'd probably need to adjust this page, so everything is consistent with your chosen format. You can see the Short date field here is already in the default condition MM/DD/YYYY. Once this is changed, the Search box should also start displaying what it's doing, in the selected format. http://winaero.com/blog/wp-content/u...l-Region-2.png ******* When you do a search in Windows, the entries produced are not necessarily always in a "useful" frame of mind. They may resist manipulation, like copy and paste. You can try and change the display mode using the ribbon, but depending on which OS, this doesn't always seem to work for the best. So while the immediate answer would seem to be "you idiot, copy and paste", it's not that simple. As sometimes the format that comes back, simply doesn't copy/paste. And then you have to futz with it, until it is in a state you can use. If I knew what the name of this state was, I might be able to find a better solution (i.e. just get rid of it forever :-) ) As I don't like how it works. The entries should just come back in details mode, so they're immediately usable. (Geeks go wild...) https://www.tenforums.com/general-su...h-results.html http://www.winhelponline.com/blog/se...ls-windows-10/ Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 ;Fixes search results defaults to Content view. ;Sets Details view as default search results view for Generic folders.

Make sure to modify that, to do it the way you think works best. Paul |

You should change to DD/MM/YYYY as MM/DD/YYYY makes no sense. Thanks. It's the US method, using numerals in the customary form: "July 6th, 2017" - 07/06/2017. True, it makes no sense, but it's how they do it, and all file managers I know of sort it correctly. I can only marvel at the extra coding needed to do that. If you want to be sure an American understands your dates correctly, write them as YYYY/MM/DD, which also sorts with minimal fuss. Real world example from a few days ago. I asked a colleague via IM when a certain task had been completed. His response was "3/4". Is that March 4 or is it April 3? The answer somewhat depends, but I knew that he hadn't been in the military and he hadn't been to Europe, so I guessed March 4, which he confirmed as correct. In the military we used dd-mm(m)-yy(yy), which I would have liked to see as a standard. People like to say that it's confusing, but I think it's only because they aren't used to it. While we're at it, let's go Metric! |

People like to say that it's confusing, but I think it's only because they aren't used to it. I'm sure you're right that it's only because they aren't used to it. The standard I would like to see is YYYY-MM-DD. It makes the most sense because it's directly sortable. And while we're talking about dates, I would like to see the calendar changed to 13 months of 28 days each, with New Year's day and Leap Day (in the years when there is one) separate days at the beginning and end of the year, not in any month. That would make the first of every month fall on a Monday, and so on. But it will never happen, because it doesn't make every Sabbath (whatever day of the week your Sabbath is on) always 7 days after the last one. Almost every religion would strongly be against it. While we're at it, let's go Metric! A strong ditto on that! To me, there's only thing against that. There are a fair number of mechanics who have wrenches, measuring tools, etc. in inches, pounds, quarts, etc. They would have to bear the sizable expense of replacing them. And by the way, as far as I'm concerned, doing something like selling milk as .0946 liters instead of calling it a quart doesn't qualify as going metric. Similarly, changing speed limits from 55mph to 88 kph instead of 90 kpm doesn't count ether. |

Most of those SAE tools wouldn't stop working. People would have to translate some things, but a surprising number of tools are already metric because a surprising number of things that need repairing are metric. Every vehicle I've owned since 1982 has been metric, for example. Eventually, as new generations of workers come up, everyone would transition over. Bumpy, perhaps, but still possible.

One of the states, perhaps South Dakota, had put up dual speed limit signs several years back, but I think I read that the metric versions had since been taken down. I'm not sure a slow transition is the answer. Just set a date and do it. Go all the way. |

Every vehicle I've owned since 1982 has been metric, for example. Eventually, as new generations of workers come up, everyone would transition over. I wasn't thinking primarily of car mechanics. In one of my several previous lives, I was part owner of a precision machine shop. Almost every one of our employees owned vernier calipers and a micrometer. And none of them were metric. Bumpy, perhaps, but still possible. Possible, of course. It's the bumpiness I was concerned with.

I think it was more than one state, and probably all or most have been taken down. I'm not sure a slow transition is the answer. Just set a date and do it. Go all the way. I agree, despite the bumpiness. |
