Configure My Windows Date and Time Format

Last updated:

Overview

Settings for items like  date formats and time are not contained within the Hubb Software. These settings are pulled from the Windows Regional Settings on your Computer. These settings will need to be correct for the Hubb software to operate effectively.

Symptoms

You may notice that the date on charts is displayed in an incorrect format or that your data appears to not be up to date.

If the system date is incorrect then the date on charts within the Hubb Software will also be incorrect as the Hubb software utilises this date setting when storing or displaying data.

Resolution

You will need to set the system date correctly within the Region Settings of your Windows system.
