Hello,

Part 1:
It is a bug after all. I tested it again and now used rufus on Windows 10 to
create a KDE neon bootable Live USB.
https://rufus.ie/

rufus creates FAT32 as file system by default.

I immediately opened Dolphin and created a folder and a .txt file and can
confirm that "Created" is not displayed under Properties. When I switch to
Details view mode I can manually add "Created" here for the column, but it
doesn't show any time, the entry is empty.

Part 2:
After part 1 I just installed KDE neon on my computer and by default ext4 is
used as filesystem. Here it shows for the local files and folders "Created"
under Properties and in the column the entry is not empty, exactly what I
expected, so no problems.

But I have now mounted a USB flash drive with FAT, FAT32 exFAT and NTFS and can
confirm that KDE neon does not show "Created". It lacks support for these
filesystems.

Note: On Windows 10 File Explorer shows "Date created" files and folders on my
USB flash drive (FAT, FAT32, exFAT and NTFS).
