Summary

Looking at the file properties updates the file access date

What software is involved?

• Operating System: Windows 10 22H2
• Cryptomator: 1.12.0

Volume Type

None

Steps to Reproduce

Explorer, right click on any file, select properties. This shows the properties box, fine.
If you close the box and reopen it the "Last Access Date" has changed.
Also looking at the properties of a big folder is very slow, probably due to the fact that the access dates are rewritten for many files.

Expected Behavior

File "Last Access Date" should only change if the file contents are read.

Actual Behavior

Looking at the file properties changes the file access date.

Reproducibility

Always

I am not a Cryptomator developer, but to be fair, access time is the most useless property ever implemented in any filesystem, wasting write cycles and disk lifespan for no reason. I cannot think of any software that even depends on it. Many Linux distributions simply turn it off. So, dealing with access time should have the lowest priority.
