Despite leaving the checkbox in options unchecked for "not updating file date time" - the modification time for the files are not updated.
The reason this is useful is for scanners and other software that checks if anything has happened / has been updated.
Thanks for a great piece of software.

Can you please tell me which file type (e.g., MP3, FLAC, ...) this is happening with and which function (e.g., Save, Remove, ...) you've applied?
