The Windows agent plugin {{mk_inventory.vbs}} reports the install date of every exe file. We convert this date to an integer in order to filter or sort in HW/SW inventory views. The date format depends on the client host and can be different.

Example: {{%m/%d/%Y %H:%M:%S}} or {{%d/%m/%Y %H:%M:%S}}. In this case we cannot distinguish DAY and MONTH in general (eg. "01/02/2020").

This has been fixed. Now the install date of exefiles always has the format {{%m/%d/%Y %H:%M:%S}}. Please install the newest agent plugin {{mk_inventory.vbs}}.
