Calendar somehow skipped ahead a full week. Windows Defender assumes my definitions to be outdated


This is odd. I got the notification to update my virus definitions early this morning and noticed it said the definitions were last created on 12/3, which is impossible. I checked my calendar and sure enough my date had strangely updated to 12/3 (not shown). I had to manually reset it back to 11/25 and then re-enable "set time automatically" to get it to stick. Should I be worried? I'm basically locked out of updates for a week because of this.

This is on a recently purchased Spectre x360 btw.

I suppose the first thing I would check is the time/date in the BIOS. If that's normal, there's not much else to do/check unless it happens again.

Thought I'd update this.

It seems restarting my computer was the trick that fixed it. I'm able to receive definition updates again
