Post by anmac1789 »

Can everything display windows tick time ? It seems it can be more accurate than windows 100 nanosecond time

Windows ticks are in milliseconds.

Everything uses FILETIMEs internally.

To format date/time with 100 nanoseconds:
  • In Everything 1.5, from the Tools menu, click Options.
  • Click the Advanced tab on the left.
  • To the right of Show settings containing, search for:
    time
  • Select time_format.
  • Set the value to: HH:mm:ss.SSSSSSS
  • Click OK.


Alternatively, please try the following search:

addcolumn:column-a column-a:=FORMATFILETIME($date-modified:,"YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm:ss.SSSSSSS")

(I know nothing of Excel, so...)

I came across, yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss.000, so if you set a cells date format to that, or similar, maybe, yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss.0000000 ... ?

I tried that it didn't work, because all it display's is a 3 milliseconds as 000

yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss.000 worked for me.

Excel only supports millisecond resolution.
