Lately iv'e been running into problems with more and more game launchers (Uplay, Battle.net, Epic, Origin, steam works fine) where ill try to boot up a game but not even get to the title screen before it tells me it can't connect, retrying doesnt work, resetting my network or restarting my computer doesnt work, ive tried everything i could find that was related to the games themselves but think it must have something to do with the computer wut i have no idea whats causing the problem. Anybody know how to fix it?

    Ok update, i found the, i had originally changed my computers time manually because the automatic time was wrong, apparently if u have the "wrong time" which is what you get if u set it manually, the games will tell you there was a connection error, so no matter what your automatic time says, it counts that as the right time
