Windows File Explorer Doesn't Display Date Taken for .mpo Files

Thanks for your reply. It prompted me to look in more detail.

In File Explorer for a JPG/MPO pair on the original SD card, the times displayed were the same for both files: 3/3/2018 5:45 am. The dates displayed were:

Date, Date Modified, Date Created, Date Last Saved, and for the JPG file, Date Taken.

I believe each of the above dates, except Date Taken, are the file's date/time rather than EXIF dates/times.

However, I was two time zones away from home and the true time should have been 7:45 AM. I processed both files through the EXIF Date Changer program to add two hours to the time. Those files now display in File Explorer:

Date                          Date Modified        Date Created        Date Taken

JPG    3/3/2018 7:45 AM  3/9/2018 9:21 AM 3/9/2018 9:15 AM 3/3/2018 7:45 AM

MPO 3/9/2018 9:15 AM  3/9/2018 9:21 AM 3/9/2018 9:15 AM Blank

Both the JPG and MPO files EXIF data have 3/3/2018 7:45 AM in the fields:

Modify Date, Date/Time Original, and Create Date.

It appears the source for the Date displayed by File Explorer must be different for the two files. Looking at the file Properties in File Explorer, the MPO file is type img with only a few fields displayed. The properties for the JPG file do not have an entry labeled type. It does have an Item Type which is JPEG  8BIM header (Mac) and displays much of the EXIF data.

In the EXIF data, the MIME type for both files is image/jpeg.

Maybe the entire problem is that for a MPO file, File Explorer is not looking for EXIF data at all.

Would it be possible to modify the file properties for the MPO files so they are recognized as JPG files?
