Bridge CC 2019 changing "Date Created" file property

While using Bridge CC 2019 (9.0.3) on a Windows 10 system, some image files have "Date Created" and "Date File Modified" randomly changed, creating chaos in my workflow.  Have reverted to Bridge CC 2018.  Any idea what's going on?

    Pretty nasty bug, I was able to recover my data loss as my photos are manually sorted into folders by month. But my Date Created got overwritten simply by adding a single Label to a photo.

    I was a day-one Picasa user and after 18 years, (four years after it was retired by Google) I decided to move on and the first piece of software I try can't hold a candle to an 18 year-old UI...and has a showstopper bug to boot?!

    This xmp corruption issue is still ongoing.    Take a look at this xmp file created in Bridge, which states that the file was created a week earlier than it was, on a different lens than it was  (ie. it was taken apparently at 85mm on a 100-400mm lens. - Bridge has conflated two different xmps relating to different folders after moving the image around.

    Hi ChuckMaas,

    That isn't a great user experience as Bridge 9.0.3 is unexpectedly changing the "Date Created" and "Date File Modified", we're sorry to hear about this. Let us help make it right.

    Did the problem started after an update to Bridge CC? Are you checking

    Thanks,

    I have this problem too, after updating to CC 2019. About 10 years of my weekly cartoon psd files all got their modified date changed to the same day. The date created is still accurate, but I often base a new episode on an old one or use a template, so that's not at all useful. Now my filters for "everything published in 2015" (for instance) are all empty. I could restore everything from backups, but not if Bridge is just going to bite me again...

    Hi,

    Sorry to hear that you are facing issues with the Date created metadata field. Is it happening for any specific file types?
