CC apps saving files with incorrect date information

I apologize if this is a question that has been answered, but I'll be darned if I can find it.
Short Version: When I save files in Adobe CC programs (Photoshop, Illustrator, etc.), said files show up with a date of 2008. Doesn't matter if I'm writing over an old file or starting from scratch.
Long Version:
It's not a question of showing "date modified" vs. "date created," etc.
Yes, my system clock is up-to-date.
This has been going on for at least six months of annoyance.
It's mostly related to the Photoshop side of things. E.g., exporting from Illustrator to save as a PNG or JPG results in this problem, but saving a normal AI file from Illustrator does not.
Attaching a screenshot of the properties of a JPG I exported today (24 March 2022) from an Illustrator file. Please note all three "date" fields are Sunday, July 27, 2008. Also wrong time (completely - saved these in the afternoon, and they are time-stamped at 6AM). The original Illustrator file (from which the JPG was created) also sports an incorrect "created" date, but has the correct "accessed" and "modified" dates... and the weirdness continues.
I suspect the problem is centered on Photoshop, but can't find any goofy settings. Anyone have suggestions?
Many thanks.
