	\| Local file system is FAT \| File timestamp is always rounded to the next even second. This is property of old FAT filesystem. For this reason WinSCP ignores less than 2-seconds time difference with all its [[task_synchronize\|synchronization]] features. Note that FAT is used rarely nowadays, mostly with removable medias only. \|		\| Local file system is FAT \| File timestamp is always rounded to the next even second.

[[protocols#scp\|SCP]] and [[protocols#ftp\|FTP]] protocols are affected.((You can see in the remote [[ui_file_panel\|file panel]], with what precision does WinSCP know the remote file timestamp. So if panel shows e.g. ''dd/mm/yyyy hh:mm'' (minute precision), then if you change already synchronized local file within the same minute, WinSCP cannot recognize the change and won't synchronize the file again.)) \|

	Also note that for WinSCP to try to convert file timestamp at all, you need to have transfer option //[[ui_transfer#common_options\|Preserve timestamp]]// enabled.
