Hi,
in the registry an entry exists with install date, containing: 3cebd9a6. How
can I convert that to a date?
Thanks
Frank

Is the format of the date documented somewhere?

Herfried, I dunno. I think it might be some kind of smalldatetime, which is
only 4 bytes. I tried adding characters before and after the string but that
gave errors. The regkey is: localmachine/software/microsoft/windows
NT/currentversion (on a XP PC).
