Maybe you could try with FileInfo class?

Fileinfo myFileInfo = new Fileinfo(@"C:\path\to\file");
DateTime ftime = myFileInfo.CreationTime;

There's the UTC version too; 

Datetime ftime = myFileInfo.CreationTimeUtc;

Yes You can do this by file info.

    var f= new FileInfo(fileName);
    var creationDate = f.CreationTime;
