> ListFile does not detect directory updates correctly. It seems it only check for file name and modified date. 
> Using a 2 processors flow: ListFile -> FetchFile, and configure FetchFile to finally delete files. Following scenario fails:
> 1. Create file1.txt somewhere outside of watching directory.
> 2. Copy file1.txt to watching directory.
> 3. Wait for FetchFile to fetch and delete file1.txt
> 4. Copy file1.txt again to watching directory.
> In the 2nd time ListFile does not detect "new copy of the same file file1.txt" because file name and modified time are the same. Only creation time is updated.
