Sort photos by capture date, year and month
Check EXIF dates, scans and missing metadata before organising your archive into date folders.
Use the date the photo was taken
EXIF DateTimeOriginal can preserve capture time. Windows creation or modification dates may instead reflect copying or editing. Check camera clock and time-zone errors.
Handle missing or misleading dates
Messengers, exports and screenshots can strip metadata. Scans may have a scan date rather than the historical date. Keep uncertain files separate and check real local files instead of cloud placeholders.
Review a small date-based plan
Check a known trip or event, choose a simple year/month structure and inspect the destinations. Events can provide chronological browsing without a complex disk layout. Confirm only after reviewing; History supports undo.
