File copyed but data in files are not identical

by loesin . Updated 8 years, 4 months ago

Hi, I need some thoughts here.

I copied a folder from computer1 to computer2.
The folder did not exist on computer2, prior to copying.
In the folder there was a database-file.
Computer1 died.

When we now look at the folder on computer2, the database file is there, but there are 2 issues:
The modified date on the database file is 4 years old (properties in windows file explorer).
When we mount the database file from the folder on Computer2, the data in the database are 4 years old.
The thing is, that a user is claiming that there was lots of data going into the database the last 4 years.

How is this possible (or is it)?
