What Date in Windows does TimeStamp use.

Windows FileExplorer does not have any field called "TimeStamp".

FileExplorer can display "Date" which is not explained and not helpful, "Date Modified", "Date Created", "Date Accessed", and "Date Last Saved".

Does TimeStamp correlate to "Date Modified" or "Date Created" or some other field?

Thanks for your help.

Hi, not sure, but Windows may chose the best date based on the type of file, e.g. it might use the EXIF info for pictures. ViceVersa always uses the date modified field which every file has.
