OK. I see it came from that update, as I did begin to dimly recall on my
own. But thanks, Lee, & glad to see you still are around.

purposefully made the timestamps work the way that they do so
as to be consistent with filesystems that do indeed do as I

And what did it all have to do with any version of msvcrt.dll anyhow.

Probably the version, which is correlated to the dll file's datestamp.
IOW, by looking at the datestamp of system DLL files, one can determine
which version or update of windows it was installed with.

The uselessness of using file create dates to determine how recent your
version is was being explored. File create dates have little to do with
the age of the file's content.
