How to Change the Creation Date

I have scanned a number of slides and, of course, the creation date is wrong. Is there a way to change the creation date so it shows in "File Info..."?

    Is the date you are seeing the date you scanned the slides? If so, that is the creation date.

    Does your computer have the correct date?

    One way to change a creation date is to create a new image. Since you scanned them instead of taking a photo, you don't care that you would lose all the metadata. Change your computer clock and scan them again is one way.

    Hi, Jantzen:

    Yes, it would be helpful to give the name of the product. It is Photoshop

    CC 2018.

    I didn't think of that because I entered Help from Photoshop.

    Thanks for your assistance.  .....Bill

    Perfect! I'll get this moved over to the Photoshop​ community.
