The reason is your cmos battery is about to die. All desktop PCs use a small lithium battery, similar to those used by hand-held calculators to keep time and date info. Once this battery runs low on voltage, your date and time will be shown incorrectly.

The solution: unplug your PC, open the case and carefully extract the battery (use a small flashlight). Buy a new one of the same number (cr2032, cr2025, etc.) and install it the right way. Don't worry, it will fit only one way. Now turn your PC on and set the time and date and that's it, no problem with that for a good few years. Hope this helps.

Why do you say the requirements model represents a snapshot of a system in time?

The intent of the requirements model is to provide a description of the required information, functional, and behavioral domains for a computer‐based system. The model changes dynamically as software engineers learn more about the system to be built, and stakeholders understand more about what they really require. For that reason, the analysis model is a snapshot of requirements at any given time.
