If the dir to search is srch dir then either    find srch dir -cmin -60   change time   or    find srch dir -mmin -60   modification time   or    find srch dir -amin -60   access time   shows files created  modified or accessed in the last hour   correction  ctime is for change node time  unsure though  please correct me

sudo find   -Bmin 60   From the man page      -Bmin n      True if the difference between the time of a file s inode creation and   the time find was started  rounded up to the next full minute  is n   minutes    Obviously  you may want to set up a bit differently  but this primary seems the best solution for searching for any file created in the last N minutes

UNIX filesystems  generally  don t store creation times   Instead  there are only access time   data  modification time  and  inode  change time   That being said  find has -atime -mtime -ctime predicates      man 1 find     -ctime  n         The primary shall evaluate as true if the time of last change of         file status information subtracted from the initialization time          divided by 86400  with any remainder discarded   is n        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
