For some reason my just WIFI stops working on my pc only whenever i changed my data to lets say April 2020. I cant access any websites on google or other applications that require WIFI. it stil shows that it connected to my WIFI however it just doesn't work. this only happens when I'm changing my date and the reason I'm doing this is to access something from a game. Now all im trying to figure out is why this is happening

Windows for home | Windows 10 | Internet and connectivity

    Hi, I'm Elise, an independent advisor and I'd be happy to help with your issue.

    Changing the date on your PC interferes with the SSL connections (https) as you PC can no longer validate these website or app security certificates. The only way to resolve is to reset the date and time to the correct setting.

    Kind Regards,

    Elise
