    <p>I need to change/update/set my system (windows7) default dateTime format <strong>programatically</strong> and permanently until I change it myself through code or through windows GUI</p> <p>I have tried a lot of solutions like this one from <a href="http://www.codeproject.com/Questions/168386/How-to-change-system-date-format-c" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Code Project</a></p> <pre><code> Console.Write(DateTime.Now + ""); RegistryKey rkey = Registry.CurrentUser.OpenSubKey(@" Control Panel\International", true); rkey.SetValue("sShortDate", "dd/MM/yyyy"); rkey.SetValue("sLongDate", "dd/MM/yyyy"); Console.Write(DateTime.Now + ""); </code></pre> <p>The closest and well reputed answer is following from from <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1389187/set-default-datetime-format-c-sharp">Set Default DateTime Format c#</a>, I tried this solution but it did not help me. As It does not change my system datetime format (shown in taskbar). And after I restart the app having this code, I again get the old format before this code is executed.</p> <pre><code>using System; using System.Globalization; using System.Threading; namespace test { public static class Program { public static void Main() { Console.Write(DateTime.Now + "");// MessageBox.Show(DateTime.Now + ""); CultureInfo culture = (CultureInfo)CultureInfo.CurrentCulture.Clone(); culture.DateTimeFormat.ShortDatePattern = "dd-MMM-yyyy"; culture.DateTimeFormat.LongTimePattern = ""; Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = culture; Console.Write(DateTime.Now + "");// MessageBox.Show(DateTime.Now + ""); } } } </code></pre>
