FAQ

Why is metadata important?

Metadata can reveal the origin of a file. It's useful for verifying authorship, checking when a file was actually last worked on, or ensuring you strip sensitive info before sharing.

Does it show previous versions?

No, standard Excel metadata only stores the *last* modified date and author, not a full history of changes.
