I understand what is "Creation date" and "Modified Date" but there is one more- just "Date"
Creation is the date I create this files and modified date is the last time I made any changes to the files.
How about "date",What does it mean??
 
I believe the question is when choosing how to sort a folder in file management, I have the same options (such as sort by:name, date, size, etc).
From my use, "date" is essentially the same as created and modified together. Whichever file is newest/oldest/most recently changed (not accessed).
