File Deleted Before Backup

Have an application installed on my laptop, with a vast number of data files installed below it. First backup of this laptop using AISBackup 2.0 build 236. The log shows a considerable number of files as "File Deleted before backup". A quick check shows that the files have not been deleted. However, one thing I did notice is that Windows Explorer, detail view shows them all without a modify date. A check of the file properties shows a Modified date of "29 June 1904, 13:41:00". The Created and Accessed dates are both valid and within the last few days. How can I back these files up - given that I am unable to modify them?

Thanks :?:

Hi

Are these files on an NTFS drive?

Indeed they are.

Invalid date modified

We have made the same corruption here using a 'date modified modifier', would you like a copy of this program to correct the dates, albeit one file at a time, although you may select more than one file within each directory?

Here it is:

Unfortunately, it may be a while before AISBackup is uploaded with the proper fix.
