How to find the date of modified files. Press the Windows key + E on the keyboard to open File Explorer. On the left side-scrolling menu, select the drive or folder that you want to view the last modified date(s) (A) for the contents.
But yes, just go to the Finder, press Command + F to bring up a Finder window, then change the filters to search "This Mac", and "Last modified date" is "after" <your date> to see all your modified documents.
