DATE$ function

[SpriggsySpriggs]

If you want to set the system date, I recommend clicking the date in the bottom right corner of your monitor and changing it through the popup. In Control Panel, this requires administrator privileges. In Windows' new Settings menu, this can be done without those rights and does the exact same thing. Changing the date and time through some program would be a bad idea, as mnrvovrfc (is that just some random letter combination?) said.
