Little bug I discovered in OneCare settings

I have installed OneCare 2 90-day trial on my Vista X64 machine earlier
today and I must say I'm quite satisfied with the program, but I found a
small bug under "Settings": It is impossible (at least for me) to schedule
"Tune up" and "Scan" using the 0-23 format hour, despite I use this time
format in Vista. There is not even the "AM" or "PM" information to determine
when exactly the task is scheduled.

Best regards,

MH

Re: Little bug I discovered in OneCare settings

You specifically mention Vista X64. Have you compared the dialog in Vista 32 bit
or XP?
On a Vista 32 bit laptop, I'm looking at the dialog for the time and it is based
on a 12 hour clock with an AM/PM selection.
In Control Panel, Regional Settings - is your time format:
HH:mm:ss tt
or
HH:mm:ss - without the "tt" which is the AM/PM designation.
I switched my time setting to be the 24 hour clock and I still see AM/PM in the
OneCare settings.
Note that I don't have an X64 system to test.

Re: Little bug I discovered in OneCare settings

Hello StephenB,

I use Windows Vista Ultimate X64 SP1 (build 6001.18000) and my time format
in Control Panel is set to HH:mm:ss. I use "English" Windows Vista Ultimate
with Slovenian regional settings applied. These settings were applied at
installation of Vista, prior to installation of OneCare 2.0. Unfortunately I
don't have other computers running Vista X86 or XP.

Best regards,

Mitja Harej
