Description

Returns the creation time of a file in UTC (Coordinated Universal Time) time zone.

Use GetCreationTimeUtc to obtain the creation time of a file in UTC time zone.

On POSIX and Mac, a file system entry does not have a Creation Time defined. The only information that is available is the last modified and last accessed time.

Note: GetCreationTimeUtc raises an exception if the given path is invalid or the file does not exist.
