Questions
Does it change my original files?
Only the creation and modification dates change. Embedded photo and document metadata is not changed.
Can I undo a change?
On Windows, every save can be undone or redone afterward. On Mac, there is no automatic undo; select files for a reviewed retry instead.
Can it read camera capture times?
On Mac, choose a named time zone and the first or second occurrence of a repeated hour. On Windows, apply a photo's EXIF capture date to both fields in one tap.
