  • Go to Scripts. Select your backup or copy script and click Options.

  • 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.
