-<P STYLE="margin-bottom: 0cm"><FONT FACE="Tahoma, sans-serif">A
-common problem synchronization software has to deal with are +-1 hour
-file time shifts after a Daylight Saving Time (DST) switch has
-occurred. This can be observed for example when a FAT-formatted
-volume is compared against an NTFS volume as frequently happening
-with USB memory sticks. Files that previously appeared to be in sync
-are now shown with an one hour modification time offset, although
-they have not been modified by the user or by other means.</FONT></P>
-<P STYLE="margin-bottom: 0cm"><FONT FACE="Tahoma, sans-serif">The
-reason for this strange behavior lies in the way NTFS and FAT drives
-store file times: NTFS stores time in UTC format, while FAT uses
-local time.</FONT></P>
-<P STYLE="margin-bottom: 0cm"><FONT FACE="Tahoma, sans-serif">When
-times stored in these two different formats are compared, one format
-has to be converted into the other first. In both cases Windows uses
-the current DST status as well as current time zone information for
-its calculations. Consequently the result of this comparison is
-dependent from current system settings and in particular file times
-that used to be the same can show up as different after a DST switch.</FONT></P>

-<P STYLE="margin-bottom: 0cm"><FONT FACE="Tahoma, sans-serif">Luckily
-FreeFileSync users need not to worry about this issue. Each file on a
-FAT volume automatically gets additional meta data encoded in its
-creation date that enables a correct file time calculation. This not
-only solves all DST issues but also time shifts that occur due to
-travel between different time zones.</FONT></P>
