How to change the date on a PC computer

Why the date on your computer matters
Your date and time settings on your computer are important because they dictate how your computer handles the date and time.
For example, if your computer’s date and time are set to US/Eastern Standard Time, then anything that was created or edited on your computer in the US/Eastern Standard Time zone will be in that time zone. If you’re in a different time zone, then the date and time on your computer will be different than the date and time on the things you edited.
If you want to be able to work on documents created or edited in other time zones, you’ll need to change your computer’s date and time setting to match the time zone in which you’re working.
Conclusion
When you change the date on your computer, you might not realize that you are also changing the time. Make sure you are aware of the time change so you don’t accidentally do things at night that you would have done during the day.
