Setting incrementing timestamps

[AdamJelly]

I have several files. The names end with 001, 002, 003 etc. I want to change the dates of all the files but the timestamp to increment by a second for each file. So each file has a similar timestamp but each is different by a second, so when they will sort in date order.

Look at "Change File Timestamps" in Special (14) but I do not think it's possible there. I think it can be done with a Javascript function.

Aside from JS...

(Nirsofts) BulkFileChanger.

Add your group of files (drag & drop or whatever) into BFC
F6 (Change File Time), in the Modified: row, enable Add, then 2 seconds
Do it.

Note that 'Do it', does it, so make sure what you're wanting to do is what is will do.
IOW, test on a copied set of files, first, verifying expected results.

Also note that you can do 1 second, but depending, 1 second may (or may not) effect a change.
(As in I'm guessing "1 second" is... I'm not quit sure, but is taking the milliseconds into consideration, & adding "1", but then with rounding, it may end up being the "same" rather then +1. In the end, that probably ? won't matter, except you might have a sequence like 1 2 4 instead of 1 2 3.)
