A more accurate Windows command prompt DIR modified time

The robocopy answer does work, but another nice option that works from the standard Windows console (not DOS per se):

forfiles /c "cmd /c echo @file @ftime"

There is no native Windows command line utility that supports viewing time stamps with a resolution of milliseconds.

Your best option would to either use a 3rd party tool or for a native solution (Vista+), use robocopy (supports seconds):

robocopy /L /TS . ..

Tracking a resolution finer than seconds might be trivial or useless as well depending on the file system being used. See http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms724290(v=vs.85).aspx and http://jpsoft.com/help/index.htm?timestamps.htm

FAT has a write time resolution of 2 seconds.

Another user wrote "There is no native Windows command line utility that supports viewing time stamps with a resolution of milliseconds." That is incorrect. Run either of the two wmic commands on a file in an NTFS filesystem and you will see the timestamp to the accuracy of millionths of a second (microsecond which is shorter/smaller than millisecond):

For file type = file:

For file type = file folder / directory:

20141109222121.770365-420 = 2014-11-09 22 hours 21 minutes 21 seconds 770365 microseconds 420 minutes different from UTC time.

10 millionths of seconds:See https://superuser.com/questions/937380/get-creation-time-of-file-in-milliseconds which has text generated by a different method - "[File] Birth [time]: 2015-03-29 22:16:50.080654200 +0100". "080654200" shows the amount of nanoseconds (080,654,200) or the amount of tenths of microseconds (0,806,542).

Wikipedia says: NTFS Date resolution = 100 ns - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NTFS
