<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">This release fixes an issue in version 18 of Patch Policies.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">In version 18, editing a policy created prior to the January 21, 2021 (version 18) release may produce the error “Conversion failed when converting date and/or time from character string” and leave that policy definition in a bad state.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Then upon restarting the Patch Policies application either through a restart of the WebUI service or an update of Patch Policies to a later version, you may also receive that same on-screen error when trying to access Patch Policies.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Version 19 resolves this policy editing issue. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">However, any bad policy definitions will still need to be corrected by following the instructions below.<o:p></o:p></p>
