Hi Andrew,

I have just added the new first line in the dates.list file:

[/Tasks][6564]% diff -u
C:/Users/ydudorov/AppData/Roaming/zim/config/zim/{dates.list--orig,dates.list}
--- C:/Users/ydudorov/AppData/Roaming/zim/config/zim/dates.list--orig

 %x
 %c
 %A %d/%m/%Y
[/Tasks][6565]%

After that I have opened the new notebook and see interpretation of this
line in the top of the list shown by the " Date and Time ..." dialog:

Is it possible that you have the invalid format?

Zim is 0.68-rc1 (Windows).

Hope it helps.
