    Clock forcefully set in the future & apps crashing


    I left my Windows 7 PC on overnight (with lots of apps left open - mainly development IDEs & web browsers). It has latest virus scanner and latest Windows 7 updates (auto-updates).
    It shouldn't lock when idle.

    When I came back in the morning, the PC was locked. Fair enough.
    When I unlocked it, lots of apps were crashing. Then I looked at the clock:

    Anyone have any idea why this happened?

    HI andwan0,

    have a look in your event viewer, it should tell you if/what program changed the time setting.
