Robocopy can not ignore timestamps
Hi,
trying to copy 2TB of files without touching the timestamps to a ReadyNAS NVX, but robocopy always adds option /COPY:T
Running robocopy /MIR /COPY:DSO /R:0 /W:0 says in the header:
Options : *.* /S /E /DCOPY:D /COPY:DTSO /PURGE /MIR /R:0 /W:0
Windows Server is 2008 R2 and robocopy version June 2012.
Even if I use /NOCOPY all files get touched by robocopy.
It seems robocopy can not set the change date.
But it might be a bug, that it's not possible to prevent robocopy from touching all timestamps.
Any hints?

Hi,
To copy all files from a folder to another folder with RoboCopy keeping the
original timestamp:
robocopy Source_Path_Here\*.* Destination_Path_Here\ /B /COPY:DATOU
