Question

Dear Adobe Animate - please stop updating Date Created every time I save

Windows tracks both the date/time a file was last modified as well as the date/time the file was originally created.

Unfortunately, Adobe Animate updates the Date Created every time I save the file.  This makes the Date Created useless, as it doesn't show the actual date the file was originally created. This causes me minor workflow headaches. I wish it would stop.

See attached screens. Note that the Date Created for RCU_Real_003.fla changes every time I save the file.

    Thanks. Wasn't sure if that counted as a bug, or a feature request.

    i don't know either, but both reports end up in the same place (i think).
