Change the Date slicer format

Hi,

MDivyanjali_0-1726055016948.png

I'm trying to change the slicer's date format to "DD/MM/YYYY" in Power BI. I've already adjusted the Power BI regional settings as well as the system region settings, but the slicer date format hasn't updated.

If anyone has suggestions or knows how to resolve this, I would really appreciate your help.

Thank you!

Hi @MDivyanjali ,

 

If you want to change the slicer's date format to DD/MM/YYYY, you need to change the application language as “Use Windows default display laguage”. And set the windows display language as English(United Kingdom).

Once everything is set up, reopen your .pbix file and you'll see the new date format.
