I don't think windows saves the dates that you change files, just the last time you did it.

Hmm, after searching some more I found out that ALL Vista and 7 versions have the shadow copy service and it's actually running, they just removed the GUI for it. I however don't know if it's actually enabled, if not, you are out of luck, even if the API's work, it's too late you want it to work without enabling shadow copy yourself. BUT if it's enabled (which I doubt) you could use the API to get what you want.

Correct. Windows saves only the last change time for each shadow copy.

Looking at some screenshots it appears that when shadow copy is enabled it does save the dates of all changes.
