Hello, I've recently changed the regional format on my computer (from Italian to US) and WinNUT always crashes at the startup with this error log:

Exception type: System.FormatException Exception message: String was not recognized as a valid DateTime. Exception stack trace: at System.DateTimeParse.Parse(String s, DateTimeFormatInfo dtfi, DateTimeStyles styles) at System.Convert.ToDateTime(String value, IFormatProvider provider) at System.String.System.IConvertible.ToDateTime(IFormatProvider provider) at System.Convert.ToDateTime(Object value) at WinNUT_Client.Update_Gui.VerifyUpdate() at WinNUT_Client.Update_Gui.SetVisibleCore(Boolean value) at System.Windows.Forms.Control.set_Visible(Boolean value) at WinNUT_Client.WinNUT.WinNUT_Load(Object sender, EventArgs e) at System.EventHandler.Invoke(Object sender, EventArgs e) at System.Windows.Forms.Form.OnLoad(EventArgs e) at System.Windows.Forms.Form.OnCreateControl() at System.Windows.Forms.Control.CreateControl(Boolean fIgnoreVisible) at System.Windows.Forms.Control.CreateControl() at System.Windows.Forms.Control.WmShowWindow(Message& m) at System.Windows.Forms.Control.WndProc(Message& m) at System.Windows.Forms.ScrollableControl.WndProc(Message& m) at System.Windows.Forms.ContainerControl.WndProc(Message& m) at System.Windows.Forms.Form.WmShowWindow(Message& m) at System.Windows.Forms.Form.WndProc(Message& m) at System.Windows.Forms.Control.ControlNativeWindow.OnMessage(Message& m) at System.Windows.Forms.Control.ControlNativeWindow.WndProc(Message& m) at System.Windows.Forms.NativeWindow.Callback(IntPtr hWnd, Int32 msg, IntPtr wparam, IntPtr lparam)

The date has changed from dd/mm/yyyy to mm/dd/yyyy and the time from 24h to 12h. I tried to uninstall and reinstall it but I always get the crash. How can I reset or change the WinNUT's date and time format?

Thanks

Alessandro

Hi Alessandro,

This repository is no longer maintained, and development has moved over to the new repository at https://github.com/nutdotnet/WinNUT-Client. Specifically, I believe this issue may be related to https://github.com/nutdotnet/WinNUT-Client/issues/78. Please add your feedback to that issue (this exception and any log you can provide), then close this issue so people know to go to the new repository.

Thank you!
