HI,
Tried to open Cumulus the other day and I get an error message saying 'an error occurred in Cumulus' in the bug report it says 'could no convert variant of type (unicodeString) into type (date). Pressing restart application just brings up the error message again.
I've attached the bug report, would be great full if someone could take a look or point me in the direction of what might be wrong.
Thanks

Re: Could not convert variant type
The format of the dates in your today.ini file are no longer in a format that Windows recognises.
You've had this problem before: https://cumulus.hosiene.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=9786
On that occasion it appears that the file was corrupted, perhaps the same has happened again.
