Learn how our file date modification tool works safely without altering your file content.

No, only the file dates are changed. The file content remains completely unchanged. Our tool only updates the metadata related to Created Date and Modified Date which you choose to edit.

How Our Tool Works

Metadata-Only Operations

Our tool operates exclusively on file system metadata:

  • Creation date (when the file was first created)
  • Modification date(when the file was last modified)

What Remains Unchanged

Everything else about your file stays exactly the same:

  • File content: Every byte of data remains identical
  • File size: No change in file size
  • File format: The file type and structure are preserved
  • File permissions: Access rights remain unchanged
  • File ownership: Owner and group settings are maintained
  • Other metadata: All other file properties are preserved

Safety Guarantees

No Data Loss Risk

  • File content is never read or modified
  • No temporary files are created
  • Original file remains in place throughout the process

Instant Operation

  • Timestamp changes are atomic operations
  • No risk of partial modifications

Reversible Changes

  • You can always change created date and modified date on yours files again
  • No permanent alterations to file structure

Our tool provides the peace of mind that comes with knowing your valuable file content is completely safe while giving you precise control over file dates.
