Question

After Effects renders incorrect time stamp

Renders from After Effects are stamped with a date thats days in the future. Creates a real headache for production. Not good for our version tracking. This issue affects multiple artists on our team, using many different version of After Effects (2020 nd 2019). Its not a local issue. 

Please advise. Thanks for any help on this issue

This is so incredibly dumb. I need the dates on my renders to match when I rendered them in real life. Adobe, fix this please, you're creating an organizational shitshow for us.

Wow strange, I just rendered something and it dated it as Sept 2nd. Looks like a bug, I see the issue here you can vote on:

As a workaround, I'd suggest you version with version numbers or dates stamped into the filename rather than the file date, file dates are typically pretty unreliable across Operating Systems anyway.
