The timestamp in question is Date Modified.
There are two machines in question:
1) a desktop with Win7
2) a laptop with Win8.1
Both machines are using the same time zone and are using the same NTP server. Their clocks (both CMOS and Windows) show the exact same time.
Situation 1:
-- I use the Win7 box to copy some files to the Win8.1 box.
-- I use the Win7 box to view the newly-copied files on the Win8.1 box.
-- Timestamps match.
-- Now I go to the Win8.1 box and look at the newly-copied files from there.
-- Timestamps are off by ONE HOUR.
In other words, the Win8.1 box is showing me a DIFFERENT Date Modified than what the Win7 box shows me, for the SAME files at the SAME time in the SAME location!
Situation 2 (sit 1 in reverse):
-- I use the Win8.1 box to copy some files to the Win7 box.
-- I use the Win8.1 box to view the newly-copied files on the Win7 box.
-- Timestamps match.
-- Now I go to the Win7 box and look at the newly-copied files from there.
-- Timestamps are off by ONE HOUR.
In other words, the Win7 box is showing me a DIFFERENT Date Modified than what the Win8.1 box shows me, for the SAME files at the SAME time in the SAME location!
Specifically,
If I go Win7 --> Win8.1, the timestamp falls BACK by one hour.
If I go Win8.1 --> Win7, the timestamp JUMPS AHEAD by one hour.
Remember that both machines have the same clock time!
I've Googled, but nobody else seems to have this specific problem.
Any ideas?
