I always forget which file I edit one minutes ago, so I input find . -cmin 1 or some other value but it worked exactly 1 minutes. I had to try find . -ctime 2 /*or 3,4...*/.
Then I find another approach which be better:
touch -t 12251134 empty /*similar format which 5 or 10 minutes ago */ find . -newer empty I can use date -d'-5minutes' +%m%d%H%M caculate the time for me. I want to know if there is a simple way to find files accessed 1, 2 or 3... minutes ago.

Syntax of find command with “-mmin n” option -n : find command will look for files modified in last n minutes. +n : find command will look for files modified in before the last n minutes i.e. which are not modified in last n mins. n : find command will look for files which are modified exactly n minutes ago.
In the File Explorer ribbon, switch to the Search tab and click the Date Modified button. You'll see a list of predefined options like Today, Last Week, Last Month, and so on. Pick any of them. The text search box changes to reflect your choice and Windows performs the search.
Thus find -ctime 0 finds everything for which the inode has changed (e.g. includes file creation, but also counts link count and permissions and filesize change) less than an hour ago.
Simply specify whether you want the time to be greater, smaller, or equal to the time you want, using, respectively:
find . -cmin +<time> find . -cmin -<time> find . -cmin <time> In your case, for example, the files with last edition in a maximum of 5 minutes, are given by:
find . -cmin -5 If you love us? You can donate to us via Paypal or buy me a coffee so we can maintain and grow! Thank you!
