If I were to set the date back (same year, different month) -- resave a file from its original date (just for the heck of it) -- then set the date back to current, will that affect anything?

Please clarify your specific problem or provide additional details to highlight exactly what you need. As it's currently written, it's hard to tell exactly what you're asking.– Community BotSep 22, 2022 at 11:16

It depends what else is running at that time. I know some databases and licenced tools that get completely messed up and may stop working if you do that. Best to do something like that on a VM and then copy the file back to your filestore.– cupSep 22, 2022 at 11:55

It's perfectly fine to do this– MastaxxSep 22, 2022 at 14:29

It will not affect anything seriously. With a different time, SSL connections won't be made, but your purpose is not to perform a connection with SSL during the time difference.
That said, there are tools that allow you to just modify the time/date of a file, which is a far easier method to use.
