Hello,

Is it possible to preserve the date and time on folders (directories) when transferring from the remote site to your local drive?

Thank you,
Paul

No. You can only preserve the date/time of files.

What date would you like to preserve?
Last Modified?
Created?

Folders only have the Date Created attribute (at least that's the only one I see when I view a folder's properties). I think it would be a great feature if SmartFTP were to have this capability. FileZilla doesn't have it either.

As an example, WinRAR is able to keep folder dates when you extract the contents of a RAR/ZIP file.

Actually this feature is already implemented but apparently broken. The bug fix will be available in the next build. Thank you for bringing it up
