File Date Corrector

If you move all your files to another drive, their creation dates will be changed, which can turn your sorting system inside-out, if it's done by date. To address this problem, you can use File Date Corrector. It is capable of changing dates in your files' metadata. The best part is that it can process a large amount of files in one run and that it only takes a few seconds.

The application is free to try, with some functionality restrictions. It comes in a small package and it can be installed in no time. There are no complex settings to make along the way and you don't have to meet any special requirements. You can use the software on any modern Windows platform, without encountering any compatibility issues.

Changing the dates in your files is a three-step process. First, you have to target the folders where your files are located, after which you have to specify what kind of correction the application should perform. It can be set to change the "created" and "modified" dates for specific file types, like documents, videos and many others. Finally, you can specify the details regarding how to change the dates. You can specify a date format, as well as the actual target date, for both "created" and "modified" sections.

All preparations can be made on the upper half of the user interface and each step can be prepared on a separate tab. When your settings are complete, you can hit a preview button and all the current and future dates, for each file, will appear on the lower half of the interface. If you are satisfied with the preview, you can just click a button to apply the changes.

Regardless of how many files you have, you can change their creation and modification dates on the fly with File Date Corrector.
