[QUOTE="TVWatcher, post: 1268201, member: 164672"] Why doesn't MP2 use the computer's regional settings to set the date format, why is it so difficult to set the date format to UK dates (dd/mm/yyyy), and why is the help so inadequate? After a lot of trial and error I found that a date format string of d/M/yyyy gave me UK format dates on all but the recording schedule(?). The caption to the date format entry field said that 'D' (as opposed to 'd') would give me the day of the week as well as the date, but entering D/M/yyyy gave me dates in US format (and no day of the week). Strangely dddd/dd/MM gives me UK dates everywhere(?). All of the above was on a Win10 computer. On Win7 d/m/yyyy or d/m/y or even a blank in the date format box gives me a UK date format [I]except in the recording schedule.[/I] How do I get the recording schedule to show dates in UK format in Windows 7?
