In the bottom right hand corner is the time and date. Is it the current time and date or is it wrong?

If it's wrong, click on the time, then click "Change date and time settings", then set it to the current date and time. That should fix it.

You can reset your PC and keep all your files, if you're on Windows 10. I think I saw a way to reset Edge but I'd have to look for it.

eta: https://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=view_post&forum=1095&pid=18890 to reset Edge

I'd also scan for malware using free Malwarebytes at https://www.malwarebytes.com/mwb-download/

I see you've had a few problems lately, hence the malware scan recommendation.
