Hi there!
Long time ago I did some batch file to edit my GoPro filedates.
Now I changed my camera and I have to adapt it, although I've never really understood how all of these work, so I'll need your help again.
I have a metadata that looks like this:

What I'd like to do is copy
Create Date : 2022:01:29 21:17:12
Into File Modification Date/Time and File Creation Date/Time (I guess File Access Date/Time can't be changed), so then I can bulk rename all the files using PowerRenamer (now it's taking the wrong time).
Before, I had a line that was something like this:
exiftool "-filemodifydate<createdate" "-fileaccessdate<createdate" "-filecreatedate<createdate" "C:\Videos\*.MP4"
Is this code still okay for this purpose?
Thanks a lot!
PS Luckily this camera is smart enough to compensate the timezone so I don't have to adjust that anymore, like in the GoPro, yay.
Your command should do what you want.

Thanks a lot Phil!
