Does FSA preserve metadata when restoring a file

Hi
EV 9.0.2
If I archive a file with FSA, and later restore it, is all the original metadata preserved (e.g. created date, modified date, etc.)?
I am looking to use FSA to archive data for legal cases, hence the requirement to preserve all metadata.
Thanks

should be pretty easy to test, i believe everything will be preserved though the modification date will probably the restoration date
99.9% sure it is all preserved.. Perhaps even modified date
Many Thanks,

Thanks... I need 100% confirmation ;) Will run a test and report back.
I restored an old file via Archive Explorer, and the created and modified date was preserved, so that works for me. I assume (hope) it's the same case when using FSAUtility.
Sounds good. I think it is the same with fsautility.
Many Thanks,
