Hi guys,

Currently i'm using Win10, where at the bottom the date is displaying as gregorian date,
but when i'm using DateTime.Now() is getting Hijri Date.

What I have tried:

Label1.Text = DateTime.Now.ToString();

Output:
06/11/37 09:46:04 ص

I want Grigorian DateTime here as default.

Can anyone please help me.

Thanks

A DateTime value has no format. Internally it's just a count of ticks since the epoch, 0001-01-01 00:00 in .NET. Formatting is when you call ToString.

Just use a different CultureInfo for the culture that has the calendar you want, e.g.

C#

CultureInfo french = CultureInfo.GetCultureInfo("fr-FR");

String nowStr = DateTime.Now.ToString( french );

Use CultreInfo.InvariantCulture if you just to use a predictable Western culture with a Gregorian calendar.

The problem is only in my machine, if i use DateTime.now(), is working fine in other machines. so, instead of doing in coding, i want to do it, in my machine setting.

Go to Control Panel -> TIME & LANGUAGE -> Region & Language -> Additional date, time & regional settings.
