I fully believe we are not alone as a species, but I question whether or not aliens have or are visiting us.

A point needs to be made before disclaims jump in with blanket denials because they cannot rationally accept the whole concept of ETs among us
1. When I open a png file in MS Paint and change something, then press "save" - is the whole original file then overwritten / written again on the hdd platter?
-> Yes
2. When I open a png file in MS Paint and DO NOT change anything, but only press "save" - is the whole original file then overwritten / written again on the hdd platter?
-> Yes
3. How can I see when the file was last written on the hdd platter?
Not modified, but written
-> "Written" implies "modified". Right-click the file while in Explorer, then left-click Properties. Right-clicks are a very powerful method, sadly ignored by many.
