Different date formats for File Explorer and System Tray

Hello,

I recently updated the system tray's date format by adjusting the short date. But now I noticed that when I open
File Explorer, the date format for Date Modified and Date Created is the same as the one I created for the System tray. I don't want it to be the same date format as I'm using in the System Tray. I would like for File Explorer to use a different
date format for Date Modified and Date Created properties. My questions are:

1. Is there a way to have different date formats for the System Tray and File Explorer?
2. On the system tray I show the day of the week (long and not just the first 3 letters). Always on Wednesdays, the date will not show and the system tray will only show the time. Why is this? How can I fix this?

Thanks for your help,
