Hello Haszuraidah,

The error you are encountering is related to timestamp issues during the code generation and build process. The error messages indicates that there might be a problem with the file timestamps, which can occur due to various reasons such as:

1. System Clock Issues: The system clock might not be set correctly. Ensure that your system clock is set to the current date and time.
2. File System Issues: If you're using a file system that doesn't support timestamps correctly (e.g., a network drive or an external drive with a different file system), this might cause issues.
3. Antivirus or Backup Software: Sometimes, antivirus or backup software can interfere with file timestamps. Try disabling them temporarily to see if it resolves the issue.
4. Corrupted Files: The files might be corrupted. Try regenerating the files by cleaning the build directory and rebuilding the project.

Please find the links to the following relevant questions:

1. Timestamp out of range; substituting 1970-01-01 02:00:00 error: https://cplusplus.com/forum/beginner/13515/
2. CCSv5 Corrupts imported project file's timestamp: https://e2e.ti.com/support/tools/code-composer-studio-group/ccs/f/code-composer-studio-forum/205511/ccsv5-corrupts-imported-project-file-s-timestamp

I hope this helps!
