I have been using the Correct folder date/time tool to update several folders after they were moved.  However, this doesn't really give a true indication of the folder date.  The folders were all created upon the FIRST file being placed in said folder.  Therefore, I would prefer that the folder date reflect the first file date, not the last.  Is there any option that can be changed to correctly indicate when the folder was first created?

Thank you!

No. The point of that function is to make the folder match date of the newest files that it normally does.
However on if you delete a file or so the folder date is updated and you can run this function to correct it again.
You can add exclude/include filters so the date is only based on files matching the filter. But the date is the latest of all items passed the filter..
