Creation and modified date become the same when saved on Illustrator files 2020 (Mac only)
The creation date on illustrator files changes when the file is modified — I need to see creation date for accurate search and timings
24.1.3 version
It has been reported previously but I cant find the post.

This problem still occurs. I have the latest version of Illustrator 24.3 on a MacBook Pro 16 inch 2019 with macOS Catalina 10.15.6. Date created changes everytime I modify a document along with Date modified and Date added. The only thing that changes is Date last opened.
Hope you have a solution for this.

Experiencing the same issue with the Illustrator version 24.2.1, on Mac OS 10.13.6.

I have the same problem: Illustrator files always have the same creation and modification date (and hour)? Also when I created the file the day before, the creation date will changed when I save it. Thanks

Now that I've updated to Illustrator 24.0, the "date created" on my file changes when I make changes to the file. The original "date created" date/time keeps changing to the same date as he "date modified" date/time. The "date added" is also doing the same thing.
I'm on a Mac using macOS Catalina 10.15.1, but it's doing the same thing for my coworkers who are using earlier macOS versions.

The Home Screen lists recent files sorted by "last modified" even when those files have not been modified.
The list actually shows the files which were last *viewed* (or last closed), regardless of whether the file has been modified.
It would be useful to have both these options, but the current situation is wrong and misleading.
