Date change not accepted by Photos

I recently changed the dates of about 30 photos from the incorrect date of 2023 to the correct date of 1993. I changed each photo one by one so that the date and time matched other photos in the group. Unfortunately, when I re-opened Photos the date are back to the 2023 date. These 30 photos are from a group of about 300 that I scanned. The other 270 photos are retaining their correct date. I am running ventura 13.1 and Photos 8.0. Any suggestions??

This may happen, if Photos has crashed, after you corrected the dates. Then Photos may not yet have saved the changes in the library.


As a test - correct one date, then quit Photos and open it again. Does Photos now show the correct date?
