Yeah, I even lived with it when the year was cut off because I found it so useful (and I'm always a fan of using built-in functionalilty over 3rd party apps wherever possible).

But that post in the second link is wrong about how to fix the short date. The registry entry is actually at:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\nls\overrides]
"SSDte"="M/d/yy "

i.e. you just add a space to the end of whatever is already in the "SSDte" value and that should do it (may need a soft reset). Mine has two spaces, but I think just one will work.
