The SetFileTime function sets the date and time that a file was created, last accessed or last modified.
hFile
Specifies an open file handle. The file handle must have been created with GENERIC_WRITE access to the file.
lpftCreation
Points to a FILETIME structure that contains the date and time the file was created. This parameter can be NULL if the application does not wish to set this information. Some file systems do not support this time value, so this parameter may be ignored.
The FILETIME structure has the following format:
typedef struct _FILETIME { /* ft */
DWORD dwLowDateTime; /* low 32 bits */
DWORD dwHighDateTime; /* high 32-bits */
} FILETIME, *PFILETIME, *LPFILETIME;
lpftLastAccess
Points to a FILETIME structure that contains the date and time the file was last accessed. This parameter can be NULL if the application does not wish to set this information. Some file systems do not support this time value, so this parameter may be ignored.
lpftLastWrite
Points to a FILETIME structure that contains the date and time the file was last written to. This parameter can be NULL if the application does not wish to set this information. All file systems support this time value.
The return value is TRUE if the function was successful, or FALSE if an error occurred. Use the GetLastError function to obtain extended error information.
