What is the timestamp in the debug window of VS modules?

Question

What is the timestamp in the VS module debug window?

Is it a timestamp created? Changed? Or signed timestamp

I changed the dll timestamps and still showing something else, unable to understand what exactly is happening?

Answer 1

The timestamp is part of the PE32 executable header. It is created by the linker. Thus, you get reliable information when creating a file.

File dates (created, modified) can be changed by FTP or other copy operations.
