ReadyNAS file dates changed when backed up to DropBox
I recently used the ReadyNas app to back up to Drop box. Iit has now changed ALL dates on ALL files to the backup date. This is a disaster of epic proportions. 10 years of project and design files ...
As I said above this should be fixed by the Dropbox update in 6.7.0. It's not going to retroactively undo any damage to timestamps from running the old version though.
This problem should be fixed by the Dropbox update in ReadyNAS OS 6.7.0 which is now available!
As for recovering the timestamps now that you've run into the problem I'm not sure if that's possible. Did you have snapshots of the Dropbox share?
No, I do not.
This is my biggest disaster in working with computers since 1979. I made an assumption I should have been too smart to make.
Thanks for trying.
