There is no way provided by MICROSOFT to do this.
but I can suggest some working ideas
1. If these are text files: Change the system DATE/ TIME and use below command after copying all the text files to a common directory eg C:\MyDir

C:\MyDir> FOR %X IN (*.TXT) DO TYPE %X >C:\%X

THIS WILL CREATE ALL TEXT FILES AGAIN IN C:\ with date & time u seted
do not forget to reset ur system DATE/TIME to current date/time.

Above will work only for TEXT files, if tried on Binary files (*.doc,*.exe) etc will result in currupt files created at C:\ which are of no use.
for binary files pls read my NEXT post....

IT REQUIRES 3rd part programs as Microsoft has not provided any.

I am trying to alter the ForeColor of a TextBox object so that parts of the displayed text are written in various colors. For example, when writing to the TextBox I wish to display parts of the text in red and then other parts of the text in black. Is it possible to do this with the TextBox object or do I need to use the RichTextBox object? Thank you for your help! Scott

Hello everyone, hope you are all doing fine. What I'm attempting to do and have been tearing my hair out over for the last few weeks is trying to update timestamps in my MySQL database when this data gets fed in by an XML data feed.

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
