See the attached photos.

Why does it happen that an email is received at a certain time and opens in the email bar at that time and when I open the email the time appears one minute earlier, is it some problem with the windows time or something?

Hello, thank you for reaching out to Microsoft Q&A.

The Outlook emails display the current timestamp when you open them, which suggests a corrupted Outlook profile or incorrect date/time settings.

In Outlook (Classic), go to File > Options > Calendar > Time zones.

Ensure the Time zone is correct.

If it is right, check the Windows date/time settings.

Go to Start > Settings > Time & language > Date & Time.

Turn on the toggle for 'Set Time zone automatically ' and 'Set time automatically'.

In the Additional settings, click Sync now.

Once done, quit Outlook in the task manager and restart it.
