Description

@DrSooom

NVDA-Version: NVDA 2018.2 RC2, Portable, Win7x64, German UI (de-AT)

See issue #5729 and PR #5751 and PR #8316

Date formats:

  • Taskbar clock: hh:mm, Ldddd, Ldd.Lmm.Lyyyy
  • Properties window: Ldddd, Ldd. Lmmmm Lyyyy, RLhh:mm:ss
    Hint: Open the properties window of a file/folder in the Windows Explorer.

L = U+200E (LTR), R = U+200F (RTL)

Update No. 1: Windows Explorer » Detail View » Last modified field » date format:

  • NVDA 2018.1: Ldd.Lmm.Lyyyy RLhh:mm
  • NVDA 2018.2 RC2: dd.mm.yyyy hh:mm

This works as expected. And there is no issue with an empty size field in this view in Windows Explorer.

Update No. 2: Systemsteuerung\Programme\Programme und Funktionen (Control Panel\Software\Software and features) » Detail View » Date of Installation field » date format:

  • NVDA 2018.1: Ldd.Lmm.Lyyyy

This also works as expected.
