I wote a test app to list the last_access_time for files using the FindFirstFile group of functions.

When looking at the WIN32_FIND_DATA::ftLastAccessTime data in my test app, everything looked ok, but when I checked what Explorer thought the time should be I saw that the last_access_time had been updated to when my test app ran. My aim was to have a non-distructive method of checking this time information.

Has anyone got any ideas as to how to achive this?
