it's happening because you had wrong date before you change it to the correct one, and the file was modified in "the future"
just open it and save again should help

I generally get this problem when Windows was setting the time, and Linux was configured for UTC as well, and there was a mix-match. Now, I let Windows do its thing, and set the clock to local in Linux. Of course, I'm not in the UK, but now it generally works fine. My BIOS clock runs two hours behind when I open the BIOS, but the time in Windows and Gentoo is fine.

Make sure your region is correct, Europe/London or whatever, and the time - set this in the BIOS, and then see how it goes from there after that.

Alternatively, check /etc/conf.d/clock and see how this is working to make sure you get the time correct - there is option here for syncing time to the BIOS when you shutdown, etc.

For time, set up ntp.

For the complained-about files, identify them and touch them. Read "man find" regarding "mtime".
