Date modified (%last_modified%) randomly changes/differs from Explorer

Hello there,
Im having a little problem...I added a new column "Data Modified" (%last_modified%) but the problem is that the "Date Modified" column randomly changes the files actual date. For example, in my music folder i see 15 files that has been modified on 20.07.2010, but foobar´s "Data modified" column shows that there is only one file that has been modified on that same date. i dont understand....

A column with %last_modified% as a pattern is just a display of data. Columns do not have actions. Whatever you are seeing has nothing to do with whether that column is visible or not.

Telling us how this is causing trouble for you might help assistance. It sounds like you are thinking that Foobar2000 is changing your files and not only is it without your knowledge Foobar2000 is making the change in such a way that explorer picks it up but not Foobar2000. Unlikely if not impossible.

EDIT: Have you used another program to edit, for example tags? Do you have the Foobar2000 library to automatically monitor for changes?
