Find last written date without dir.

[supertoyz]

I’m looking for a way to find the last written date for a file. Much like dir /TW but I need it for individual files, not a whole drive.

Look at the syntax (the switches and such), for the dir command. You can search for specific files, even within folders.

Oh man, sorry for wasting your time. I've been using dir for so long with directories I totally overlooked the files part.

C:\>type  dateonefile.bat

Code: [Select]

@echo off
dir /TCAW  abc.txt
echo creation
dir /TC  abc.txt
echo access
dir /TA  abc.txt
echo written
dir /TW  abc.txt
Output:
