Go to https://40hz.org/Pages/newton/patches/patch711000/ <https://40hz.org/Pages/newton/patches/patch711000/> website and install that 711000 patch. That is the patch for system to solve date problem.

That should be always the first thing you install on Newton.

13th June we organise Newton Meet Up #2. Feel free to join. More details soon on NewtonTalk.


Best regards,
