Id assumed that some info was missing from my images which was why the Date Taken info was not being displayed. After doing some investigation, im now not sure whats happening!

This is a snip of the image which as far as Windows Properties is concerned, Date Taken info exists.

This is the available Date... info available from exiftool

Ive also found the setting to change the Exif field used for date time operations, but this hasnt made any difference.

Why is AR not populating the Date Taken field for these images? Shouldn't it be using the Date Taken that Windows uses which Ive read is from the datetimeoriginal info?

Think Ive found out why.. seems when you change the value of the dropdown when selecting the exif field to be used (program settings>images) you need to clear and reload the list. Although it looks like it is refreshing the list following the change, it doesn't reflect the changes.
