Is this a versioned file or a data file?  

Dates usually don't matter with versioned files - if you want to know it's
history use the version. If it's a data file Windows will set some dates
when it gets installed. 

And are we talking about creation, last access, modify times?

Subject: [WiX-users] Patches.....file timestamp getting changed

Hi All,
I have created a patch using the pcp method.
The patch is working absolutely fine as expected but the only issue is
     1.The file inside my main build has a timestamp(01/01/2013"
     2.I change file inside my upgrade build to a timestamp(01/05/2013"

When i install the patch the file timestamp is getting changed to today's
date(05/20/2013)


Also when i uninstall the patch the timestamp of the file is back to 
01/01/2013 which is as expected....


Can anyone let me know the reason for this.

Thanks and Regards
Ravi
