    • Click Source > Macintosh and uncheck Use attribute modification date when matching.

    Retrospect 7.x and higher for Windows

    • Go to Automate > Manage Scripts. Select the script and click Edit.
    • Click Options > More Choices > Macintosh > Client and uncheck Use attribute modification date when matching.

    Retrospect 6.x for Mac

    • Go to Automate > Scripts. Click on your script and click Edit.
    • Click Options > More choices > Matching and uncheck Use attribute modification date when matching
