Finding original created date
I have copied a large number of documents from one computer to another and zeroed out the original drive. Now the Date Created and the Date Modified have all been reset to the date the transfer was made. I understand I may not be able to recover the orginal creation dates on some files, but if I go into the advanced summary of Word documents it shows the correct Date created and Date modified. Is there a way to display that in explorer's details view?

This solution is only available to members.
To access this solution, you must be a member of Experts Exchange.
In windows explorer, go to view, then details. The top of the screen then shows Name, Size, Type Modified. Right Click at the top of the screen and you can select from about 20 other fields....one being date created.
But if you want to see the organial creation date, you have to go to perperty of the file the go to summary to see the date.
Hopefully this help
