Add toggle for saving the file with the current time #1597

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Windows automatically organizes files by their modified date in the Downloads folder. (Even when I select date created, it just reorganizes in groups.) When I download using Motrix, the downloads have their actual modified time. And that makes Windows think that I donwloaded that file a long time ago.

Describe the solution you'd like Just a toggle in preferences that says, "Use current time as modified time when downloading a file"

Describe alternatives you've considered I tried sorting by "Date Created" but it didn't resolve the issue. There's probably a way to disable or reorganize groups by "Date Created" but even if there is, I don't think any user should be doing that just to have their Downloads folder organized properly.

This would really improve the app. Right now downloads "disappear" into the folder because the download's date modified isn't date of download.

Appreciate the work!

I can back this up. Its extremely annoying using this manager while also trying to work out of the downloads folder, because its impossible to track down files without going through the download manager. The only thing keeping me from running this manager full time
