 # CHANGELOG
 
+- __09/25/2025__
+  - Adds `LastWriteTime` Property to `TreeRegistryKey` class.
+
 - __09/16/2025__
-  - **Ctrl+C Cancellation**: Added support for gracefully canceling operations using <kbd>Ctrl+C</kbd> when the cmdlets are traversing a hierarchy. Previously, the only way to stop the process was by restarting the session.
-  - **Sort Order for Registry Keys**: Similar to issue #9 but for the `Get-PSTreeRegistry` cmdlet. It now sorts Registry Keys in ascending order.
