I use Google's calendar, and it gets its time and date from the computer. Right now, it's 2:43 PM, Friday, July 19. The calendar thinks it's 2:43 AM, Saturday morning. It started doing this a few days ago. I could understand if the clock was wrong, but it's displaying the correct time and day. Any ideas?
EDIT: Funny! After posting this, I went back to the calendar, and it had switched back to Friday. Obviously, the calendar reads everything I type, and it didn't want to look stupid.

As you said before, it is Windows 10.....it has a mind of its own. For every one that says it is a great program, there are many that think it has bloated to the point of death. Too much is being asked of 'windows' for too diverse a user base. I know jet fighters once used sinclair ZX but not now.....
Business IT needs a whole new OS. never mind the millions that are using older Win versions at home.....(often driving cars and living in homes younger than their software)
There is a place for 'old tech' but it is not in the mainstream.
Not only is Microsoft getting bigger and more diverse but so are the many 'feeder' companies like FB and Google. Internet traffic cannot afford to be held back by people insisting on using 'software' older than their children!
No I am not suggesting Linux or Apple....perhaps we should have a break point between 'home' and the rest of the world. Like Mail, you write your letter at home and then post it - not insist on the postman writing the letter for you!
That way the 'worry' about Personal Data might also be allayed.
not everything in life has to be 'live'.

God knows it keeps trying to second guess me, and looses, especially in Word. And I HATE that paperclip!

every friday I get a window telling me that the email system cannot be opened........... It stays that way for 8 hours, then goes back to normal!!!!
frustrating to say the least.
A Sinclair ZX-81 was my first PC. I still have it somewhere in my box of early computer stuff. I even subscribed to the Sinclair magazine. I have one of the Timex Sinclair color computers just before Timex dumped them. I was looking forward to great things from that alliance but it crashed quickly. Oh well just a regular Windows 10 laptop for me these days.

I think your calendar temporarily crossed the international date line.

Are you always this critical or do you walk to work?

Have a nice day and keep looking for us "grammar" morons.

Grammar was invented to give some people a reason to get out of bed.
Talking about convenient annoyances; math is just another foreign language designed to astound those on the left side of the I.Q. continuum.

So was spelling!
Spelling, the quality of materials use in the construction, not how the sentence itself is constructed.
I suppose if you have bad materials you have bad construction.
So if you have a sentence that is properly constructed, and one word is misspelled, that makes the sentence improperly constructed?
"Is spelling a form of grammar?
No. Spelling, punctuation, and capitalization are all part of writing. ... English grammar applies to the language, whether it's written or spoken; but spelling, punctuation, and capitalization are strictly for writing. Just modern technology, not grammar."
https://english.stackexchange.com/questions/388543/are-spelling-punctuation-and-capitalization-part-of-grammarBeen SO long... Now who does one believe???
As an old English teacher I say (and all should know this) spelling and grammar are the key to understanding. Otherwise misspelling is misunderstanding. Bad grammar identifies (usually) you as poorly educated, as a sloppy thinker, or as easily misunderstood.
