    Log files and Date format Expedition 12.8 and later

    Starting with Exp 12.8 it seems that the UTC format has changed from the earlier "Excel-like" number of days since Jan 01, 1900 (like 46248,45833) to a far larger number (like 134311669162721000).

    There is a function in "Tools Extract log file data" to convert it into "Excel compatible times" but those converted files I can not use to plot Tracks truncated to only cover race from start to finish.

    What is the logic/calculation behind the new large UTC format?

    We now use a Microsoft DateTime type, see
    winrt::clock struct (C++/WinRT) - Windows UWP applications | Microsoft Learn
    DateTime Struct (Windows.Foundation) - Windows apps | Microsoft Learn
