Weird date/time glitch

Hi John,

This could be caused by an error on your system files or it could just be a mistake on your Date/Time settings. A normal restart usually fixes the issue, but if in case it doesn't you can try this steps instead.

• Right-click on the date and time on your taskbar. A set of options should appear.
• Choose Adjust date/time. Make sure that it is set to your correct timezone.
• On the second drop-down, choose Don't show additional calendars.
• At the bottom, click on Change date and time formats.
• Suggested format should be:

• Firs day of week - Sunday
• Short date - M/d/yyyy
• Long date - dddd, MMMM d, yyyy
• Short time - h:mm tt
• Long time - h:mm:ss tt

You can check the Region and language as well to make sure. It is located on the same Adjust date/time window.

It can be a simple graphic concern so you can also try and update your display driver. Just type in
devmgmt on your search bar beside the Start button. A new window should appear. Expand
Display adapters then right click on your adapter. Click
Properties. Then go to Driver tab, then click Update
Driver.
