MobileRead Forums - View Single Post - [Solved] All book dates the same date after update to 6.6.1

Hello all,
I have been using Calibre since I got my first Kindle in 2010 and have been very happy with it.

I just updated calibre to version 6.6.1 on Windows 10 and suddenly all my books have the same "date". That is, the Date column (which is the "timestamp" in the database) has always shown the date of the original ebook file when I imported it into Calibre. Now all books show the same date, which is weirdly, September 27 2022, even though I updated today, September 30, 2022. I checked the files by doing "open containing folder" and the original files still have the acquired them onto the computer, so Calibre did not change the date on the windows file (by, for instance, writing to it).

Questions:
1. So what happened?
2. Is there any way to get back the old behavior?
3. Is it possible to "downgrade" back to an earlier version of Calibre? I never did that before because I never had any trouble with an update before.

Thanks for any help.
