Unhandled Exception: System.InvalidCastException: Conversion from string "06/30/11" to type 'Date' is not

c:\Program Files (x86)\Thinware\vBackup>date
The current date is: 31.03.2011

versions tested:

Thinware-vBackup-0.2.0.94.msi
Thinware-vBackup-0.2.1.105.msi

os:

w2k3 r2 x64 english, regional settings german/switzerland,location switzerland

Looks like the date/time parser in your visual basic does no sanity checks for other date/time formats..

Kind regards,

Michael
