For some reason the yearly total is wrong.
Is there a way to change it?

Wrong when compared to what? Too high or too low? The monthly and annual rain totals are calculated from the daily totals in dayfile.txt, so you'll need to correct those if they're wrong.

For some reason when I installed the latest version it gave me rain for a day that was actually dry.

Actually, now that I think about it I would like to change the Total yearly rain to match my area.
I started logging data in Feb and would like the total to reflect Jan also.
Where in the dayfile.txt would that be?

If you just want to add in an amount to the annual total to allow for the period before you started using Cumulus, the best way is to use the 'year to date rainfall' on the station settings screen.
