I just downgraded to 6.5.0 and the setting of incorrect creation/modification dates seems to have stopped, but everything it touched is still wrong. Spot checking directories it looks like almost all files were touched, so this remains a big issue.
Is no one else having this issues with 6.5.1?

Hello fetopher,
I guess it is best to contact support center to report this, so that you can show to the expert too what happened after FW update on remote session.
