How to search Windows 10 folder for Last-Modifed-By which is part of Microsoft Document Property (screenshot below) ? This may be part of MetaData according to search by author - Microsoft Community
Thanks
Sunny
Maybe VBA could be an option. There is a "Last Author" property in PowerPoint's built-in properties (PowerPoint Presentations - Properties). But I have no experience in it.

That attribute is not exposed .
let
Source = Folder.Files("C:\Users\xxx\Downloads"),
#"Expanded Attributes" = Table.ExpandRecordColumn(Source, "Attributes", {"Content Type", "Kind", "Size", "ReadOnly", "Hidden", "System", "Directory", "Archive", "Device", "Normal", "Temporary", "SparseFile", "ReparsePoint", "Compressed", "Offline", "NotContentIndexed", "Encrypted", "ChangeTime", "SymbolicLink", "MountPoint"}, {"Attributes.Content Type", "Attributes.Kind", "Attributes.Size", "Attributes.ReadOnly", "Attributes.Hidden", "Attributes.System", "Attributes.Directory", "Attributes.Archive", "Attributes.Device", "Attributes.Normal", "Attributes.Temporary", "Attributes.SparseFile", "Attributes.ReparsePoint", "Attributes.Compressed", "Attributes.Offline", "Attributes.NotContentIndexed", "Attributes.Encrypted", "Attributes.ChangeTime", "Attributes.SymbolicLink", "Attributes.MountPoint"})
in
#"Expanded Attributes"
Since "Last Modified Person Name" is not exposed, where to find listables for PowerPoint 365 documents (similar to Excel Sheets & Names can be listed) ? I'm hoping to find document last modified by Author without opening each document (just to ensure content by rightful person). There's always programming like PowerShell but my company restricts programming.
Thanks Ahead!
