What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Download a file.
2. Check modification date in file properties
3.
What is the expected result?
Last modified date is the same as reported by server.
What happens instead?
Last modified date is the date file was downloaded.
Please provide any additional information below. Attach a screenshot if
possible.
In my opinion, file modification date should reflect exactly that - when
the file was last _modified_. Downloading in that regard should be no
different than copying a file from one drive to another. Preserving
timestamps makes sense for, e.g., comparing different versions of the same
file, or checking if the file has been changed since last time it was
downloaded.
If that goes against other people's preferences of organizing their
downloads, I'd be happy if that feature is optional or even hidden in the
configuration file.
