FILETIME info  Overview  Group

The FILETIME structure is a 64-bit value representing the number of 100-nanosecond intervals since January 1, 1601.

typedef struct _FILETIME { // ft 

    DWORD dwLowDateTime; 

    DWORD dwHighDateTime; 

} FILETIME; 

 

Members

dwLowDateTime

Specifies the low-order 32 bits of the file time.

dwHighDateTime

Specifies the high-order 32 bits of the file time.

Remarks

It is not recommended that you add and subtract values from the FILETIME structure to obtain relative times. Instead, you should

• Copy the resulting FILETIME structure to a LARGE_INTEGER structure.

• Use normal 64-bit arithmetic on the LARGE_INTEGER value.
