Blank last modified timestamp crashes Romcenter to desktop when you try to fix

[Former user]

For some reason I have some really old files with blank last modified properties. Romcenter crashes trying to fix the name on them. The error says it is because of the timestamp.

I tried fixing the file through powershell, but it won't update (changing creationtime and accesstime works fine). I ended up using the following command in dos to fix the file:

type BombJack.d64 > BombJackNew.d64

I deleted the old file and Romcenter recognized the new file as a valid rom and fixed the name.

At the very least, you might add checking the modified timestamp in a try/catch to keep the software from crashing to desktop.

Can you post the faulty file ?

Can’t reproduce this problem. And without log file, can’t locate where it happens. Files date are stored in local file system and can’t be empty. Your file is probably corrupted.
