In previous projects, I used the CurrentDate special string, in the format YYYY-MM-DD (see the image below).

enter image description here

Opening the same project on a different installation of Altium, the format has been automatically changed to MM/DD/YYYY. Is there a way to change this format?

I'm unsure if I changed it in the past. If I did, I don't remember where this setting lives, and I can't seem to find it in the Altium documentation. Any help would be really appreciated.

It most likely uses your Regional Setting from Windows.
