TBird Calendar False Date Header 2024-01-07_13-27-11.png
User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/120.0.0.0 Safari/537.36
Steps to reproduce:
Am not aware of any user actions which could affect Thunderbird Calendar's display of world-standard Calendar Dates and Days of Week Headers. Both my Win10 and my Thunderbird date/time settings are correct.
Actual results:
Here is TB's false Header display of the current first week of January 2024:
Monday Dec 31 Tuesday Jan 1 Wednesday Jan 2 Thursday Jan 3 Friday Jan 4
Expected results:
This first week of January, 2024 SHOULD BE:
Monday Jan 1 Tuesday Jan 2 Wednesday Jan 3 Thursday Jan 4 Friday Jan 5

Hi William,
If you set the week to start the week from Sunday, this is the view you receive. You can control that from the Settings menu >> Calendar and then "Start The week on" and then use the dropdown. Please be aware that the change would not be rendered immediately, you need to click on the calendar somewhere to re-render it again.
I will close this bug. If you believe it's needs to be re-opened, please provide more details.

Hello, I just tried moving "start the week on" from Monday to Sunday.
Then closed and reopened TB. The false header persisted.
Through the dropdown setting once again moved "start" back to Monday from Sunday.
Again false Day+Date combinations persist in the calendar header.
Today is Monday, January 8th but TB still displays Monday January 7th.
All backwards and forwards dates remain off by one day, a total productivity bummer.
How can Header Display errors ever be influenced by a User setting?
Incomprehensible.

This TB Calendar Header Error was resolved later on 08.01.24 by clicking "use system date and time",
then re-starting TB.
This Bug report stands as real and serious. The Calendar Date+Day headers should never be
User-dependent. Those headers should always be loaded from an external, world-standard source.
Vulnerabilities in the TB Calendar Headers to User settings can lead to major errors in personal
and professional planning, potentially causing major financial and personal harm.
Please acknowledge this Design Flaw and plans to correct it.
Thank you, Bill Woodward
