BulkFileChanger: Change Date Time Attributes of Multiple Files

BulkFileChanger is a small utility that allows you to create files list from multiple folders, and then make some action on them - Modify their created/modified/accessed time, change their file attribute (Read Only, Hidden, System), run an executable with these files as parameter, and copy/cut paste into Explorer.

System Requirements & Limitations

This utility works on any version of Windows, starting from Windows 2000 and up to Windows 10. Both 32-bit and 64-bit systems are supported.
If you set a date prior to 01/01/1980, Windows Explorer will not display this date, due to a limitation originally created for old FAT systems. You can still watch an old file date using other file managers like 7-zip, using BulkFileChanger utility, or by right-clicking on the file and choosing 'Properties'.
If you want to set an old date for .jpg images, there is a workaround for the 01/01/1980 limit - Simply set the 'EXIF - Generated Time' (In the fourth line) to the desired old date/time, and then you should see this date/time on Windows Explorer under the 'Date taken' column and 'Date' column.
