Swap Date Taken and Date Created for File Properties

[litlmike]

I had a hdd that crashed and upon receiving a replacement from my online backup, the Date Created, Date Modified, and Date Accessed were set to the date of the copy, and not the actual creation date.  I did find that for my .jpgs, under Details, there is a Date Taken field that has the correct data.  Can AutoIt be used to find the Date Taken, and then Set the Date Created to the value in Date Taken?  I've never seen any of these kinds of functions in AutoIt.  Thanks!

Checkout the _GDIPlus_ImageGetPropertyIdList() and _GDIPlus_ImageGetPropertyItem() functions in the help file.  I believe property 306 is DateTaken.

 

I think the FileSetTime() function will set the Date Created.

This was perfect!  Thanks!
