    I just started working with this software, and I have a problem updating the start and finish dates of the project's tasks. When I select a date in the calendar, it changes automatically, proposing a different date from the one I've selected. I have tried using the update option on the task tab and even changed the percentage associated to the task, but it's still not working, and also it set actual start date to start date automatically (same for actual finish)

      You should take a look at the YouTube introduction video on ProjectLibre. ProjectLibre uses critical path methodology algorithm. Unless there is a Must Start On constaint for instance ProjectLibre will schedule task by default with their Early Start calcualted.

    Must start on restriction set to a later date than the project start date sadly doesn't change the situation anonymous reportet on 2021-09-22 for me. Endless google and chatgpt searches and hours of videos haven't given me another clue on what to try.
    I tried this with several new projects and even with a project with just one task I'm not able to set a start date for this task later than project-start date - even though I set the tasks restriction to "Must start on".
    Can anybody help and advice which setting might be limiting these possibility in my case?

      That is strange... is there is it possible the Project Start date is after the date you are trying to set as a Must Start On? Check the details in your Project dialog box..... also we released a major update in 1.9.8 today. You should download and try. Please note on installation you need to accept ! It is an odd installation...
