Would a file made on a computer have any identifyable information about the computer it was created on ?

It depends on the file and how it was made. Metadate resides in some file types made certain ways(like images made by taking pictures on a phone).

Geolocation is the only real worry and that is only a worry on phones and other devices with GPS. (Plus you can get rid of it very easily)
Any date/time/hours stuff is very insignificant and won't link back to you.
So hurry up and send me those nudes you raging, hot hunk of faggot.

FS metadata regarding dates is almost always stored as timezone naive, I know at least NTFS and ext4 store times as epochal time meaning the timezone of the machine used to create a file is not discernable from the filesystem's metadata. Of course the contents of a file are entirely determined by the program that generates but most reasonable filetypes don't store identifiable metadata (I'm excluding the range of (semi-)proprietary formats typical MS office products and close churn out, and images) in themselves. If most major filesystems don't, and most formats don't, it seems reasonable to assume a files authorship is indiscernible except in special cases where the file specifically contains identifying information. One might be concerned getting back-doored by a malicious OS but since apple/MS generated filesystems are usable and inspectable via auditable tools (you can mount a windows or OSX disk in linux) it seems pretty safe to there's no OS-level descit going on at least: re what's stored on-disk
