Extracting history from My Files app Downloads tab

[Android Central Question]

After moving a large number of files from my phone to an SD card via the Samsung My Files app, both the Date Created and Date Modified properties have been changed to the date of move. I have found that the original dates have been preserved through the temporary files in the "My Files > Downloads" history tab, and would like to copy the corresponding data to the moved files on the SD card, which would mean accessing these temporary files first.

Download history on the app would probably be stored in the app's temp files. You wouldn't be able to access it without root.

Which Samsung device?
When you transferred from My Files app you choose Copy or Moved?
