Edge date format question

I noticed that Power BI reports containing dates are rendering in Edge (E in the image below) using the US format MM/DD/YYYY, whereas Chrome (C) and Firefox (F) render correctly as DD/MM/YYYY.


I believe I had to tweak the settings within each browser to make dates work in Chrome and Firefox, but I can't seem to get Edge to match

I wonder if the date rendering depends on specific visuals within Power BI? The tool tip 'mouse-over' does not seem to work in any browser for instance!

I think that the browser language (so your edge browser language being set to US vs UK) might actually be affecting the date format so first try check that. Otherwise, this thread seems to have some solutions: https://community.fabric.microsoft.com/t5/Desktop/Date-format-changed-when-published-to-PBI-Service/...
