PHP will be unaware what is in a column in ms-win file explorer as it 
don't supply an API to fetch data, but on the other hand PHP can fetch 
data directly from the filesystem.

Just fetching last updated date you can use filemtime():
You can check https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.filemtime.php

If you want to fetch more data, then use stat():
https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.stat.php

What you get depends much on the filesystem used and also on mount 
options used, for example atime is many times disabled on Linux 
filesystems to make it more responsive and it's seldom needed.
