MacOS Monetery File Dates are not rendering correctly

MacOS Monterey Version: 12.4 (21F79)

So since doing a massive jump in updates, finder is no longer showing dates correctly, all I get is at. Also if I go and "Get Info" on the file you see the same, all the dates show as at.

MacOS Finder with Date Columns showing at Get Info for a file, showing at as the date

If I go to the Console App, and look at any of the options with a date, all it shows is a ,.

So now to the things I've tried:

  • SMC Reset
  • PRMA/NVRAM Rest
  • Disk Repair (Disk Utility First-Aid)
  • Re-install (without erasing data)

Any and all help will be very much appreciated.

UPDATE: Tried to re-index with spotlight, but no difference

Using the command GetFileInfo shows the correct data

TEAL-C02ZR0G2MD6W:tmp:$ GetFileInfo com.PM2.err
file: "/private/tmp/com.PM2.err"
type: "\0\0\0\0"

Doing a stat on the file also shows the correct information:

stat com.PM2.err
