Keeping Date Attributes of Files Unchanged

By Copying Files to Another Folder

When we want to keep a duplication of a file as reference, saving a copy of it within the same folder will update the "Date Created" attribute of that file to the current time.

To keep the "Date Created" attribute unchanged, copy the file into another folder. This can be done by pressing the Control key while mouse dragging it.

By Moving Files from One drive To Another

When we copy any files by mouse dragging it from one drive to another, the "Date Created" attribute of that file is updated to the current time.

To keep the "Date Created" attribute unchanged, move the file by pressing the Shift key while mouse dragging it.

This, however, will only work on files. Folders not included.
