LOST.DIR on my SD card contains 98 years old files I was cleaning up my SD card and find LOST.DIR i knew what it was for but i did not understand why the hell there are 98 YEARS old files
Does someone have got an explain?
I´m kinda scared
Take a sheet of paper and a pen.
Write down the following sentence:
&quot;My birthday is 01/01/1924&quot;
You can see there is nothing mysterious on that paper. just because it is written somewhere it doesn't mean it is true.
LOST.DIR is collection directory for restored garbage from corrupt files which is created when fsck_msdos is trying to repair your MicroSD Card.
imagine directory is like a folder and each file is a sheet of paper. access to folder is restricted (some room only your family has the key). each paper/file has three timestamps

mtime - modify time is time of birth/update of file (data) itself
ctime - change time is time of file permissions (day your mother gave you the key)
atime - last access time (so your father knows the exact date when your hands touched the sheet of paper or you read it's content with your eyes)

the timestamp mtime of files can be set to any value independently of &quot;current&quot; date/time. even the &quot;current&quot; time hwclock of your phone itself can be set to any date if you want so.

Why it is 98 years can be coincidence or set intentionally. The question can not be answered without knowing the origin of that files.
If it happens too often (every day) and there is again lot of data inside LOST.DIR even after deleting, that might indicate your MicroSD Card is near end of life and will become unreadable soon
