Modified Times out of wack re Standard Time

[Bob]

I don't know if this is a Windows issue, but...

I use a pen drive to transfer files between home and the
office. I use a comparison program to do the updating at
either end.

After the time change this weekend, setting the clock back
an hour to go to standard time, all of the files on the pen
drive are an hour later than they ought to be, and so the
comparison program, which relies on time differences,
indicates that every single file on the desktop has to be
updated.

I tried to solve this by inserting the pen drive and then
moving the computer clock back one hour, but that didn't
change anything.

Is there some way to bring the dates of the files on the pen
drive (and there are *a lot* of them) each back an hour?

Thanks.

The brief tutorial for the program on the first web page
suggests that it's used to re-set a file or groups of files
to a *specified* date and time. I don't see where it can be
used to change the dates and times of a group of files each
by an hour, but none of them to the very same date and time
(unless it's coincidental). Am I reading that correctly? If
so, it doesn't solve my issue, which requires a one-hour
change for each file.

The second site provides some code to plug into a VB
project, which already puts it way over my head, and it
doesn't describe what the code is supposed to do in any
event. Reading snippets of the code suggests to me that it
is in fact used to change dates, but I have no way of
telling how to use it or whether it would make the kind of
change I want.

If you or anyone else has any other suggestions, I'd really
appreciate it.

Thanks.
