That's all I can think of to try.ĭo you all know how I can get Finder to show the correct dates? (And, just for kicks: Why is Spotlight opening programs?) Spotlight preferences doesn't have any items in the Privacy pane. And, I'm not terribly familiar with Spotlight.įor the Finder Date problem, I did a few re-starts of the computer. Aumsing, but pretty useless.īut, that's the less important problem to solve. Typing any file or folder name at all in Spotlight causes a random program to open. I've never opened either of these applications in the past. A search for the docx file "iDrive Notes" opened "Boot Camp Assistant". (Examples: To test finding an existing RTF file on my desktop, Typed in "Holistic Dog Treats" and Garage Band opened. If I type in the name of a file, Spotlight will open a random program, mostly programs that I have never used. But, all of a sudden, Spotlight has lost its mind, so that didn't help. I tried cutting through Spotlight to see what the date shows when Spotlight finds a file. I tried Easy Find and those dates match Finder. This is noticed in the Finder window, as that's my go-to service for locating a file or folder. Once in a while, the date will be correct. I haven't seen one that's after today's date. Sometimes the date precedes either the date I created the file or even the date i first owned the computer.
Recently, Finder has been showing the wrong "Date Created" and "Date Modified" for almost files and folders.
