Anyone that can explain why the modified date differs for a folder dependent if viewing in "All Documents" or "Explorer View" ?

Thanks!

The "Modified" column in a document library reflects the date/time that the properties of the document, i.e. any of the fields in that row, were edited (NOT the modified property of the document itself). When you right-click the document and select "Edit Properties", your edit actions determine the date/time in the Modified column.

The Explorer view reads the actual modified property from the document itself. That's how they differ.

HTH,
