Hello,

I currently have two computers running Windows XP Professional. Each is connected to an APC Back-Ups XS 1500 via USB. I replaced both batteries about a year ago. Currently, under the 'Technical Details' section, the PowerChute v2.0 software shows that the 'Last Battery Replacement' as 2/5/10. In order to upgrade to v3.0, the software is telling me I have to uninstall v2.0. Uninstalling PowerChute v2.0 dumps all of the APC data from the registry. My question is this...how do I change the 'Last Battery Replacement Date' to the correct date (2/5/10) after I install v3.0?

Thanks,

-Steve

On the setup that I have. When I clicked on Replacement Battery Date button it showed me that date when it was last replaced and asked me if I would like to update/change the replacement battery date.
