After the update, Cumulus will start and immediately pops up the message shown in Steve's post about it - the date format problem.
I have reset the date and time formats. The list separator is still a comma. Cumulus does the same thing.
I have looked in the diags files from before and after the update. Here are the parts on date & time formats:
Before update:
Short date format: 16/06/2016
16/06/2016 09:28:51.198 : Short date format: 16/06/2016
16/06/2016 09:28:51.198 : Long date format: Thursday, 16 June 2016
16/06/2016 09:28:51.198 : Short time format: 9:28 a.m.
16/06/2016 09:28:51.198 : Long time format: 9:28:51 a.m.
16/06/2016 09:28:51.198 : VarToDateTime is using this format to convert dates: d/MM/yyyy
After update:
23/06/2016 13:33:16.454 : Short date format: 23/06/2016
23/06/2016 13:33:16.454 : Long date format: Thursday, 23 June 2016
23/06/2016 13:33:16.454 : Short time format: 1:33 PM
23/06/2016 13:33:16.454 : Long time format: 1:33:16 PM
23/06/2016 13:33:16.454 : VarToDateTime is using this format to convert dates: d/MM/yyyy
The only difference I can see is that it is PM now rather than p.m. Will that upset Cumulus? I can't find a region that uses p.m. and there is no custom format any more.
I am running v. 1.9.4 build 1098 in C:\Cumulus. (That is another problem. Windows backup didn't back that up for me before the update.) It is Windows 10 Home.

Re: Windows 10 update problem
It's the Windows system routines that are upset, they no longer recognise your time format because of the change to the am/pm indicator. There's a post in this thread - https://cumulus.hosiene.co.uk/viewtopic.p ... 2&p=110617 - which tells you how to access the settings to change the am/pm setting back to what it was before the upgrade.Paragon wrote:The only difference I can see is that it is PM now rather than p.m. Will that upset Cumulus?

Xclnt. Immediate confirmation of it working: Cumulus is downloading data.
Thank you very much Steve.
