Re: Problem with v7.8 Reformat Date: Convert to "(yyyy)" from "yyyy"
OK, I found a solution with RegEx: Replace the expression "\(?(\d{4})\)?" with "($1)" (skip the extension), but it only prevents the Reformat Date command: Convert to "(yyyy)" from "yyyy", whole words only, skip the extension. fixes the problem in older versions.
Nevertheless, I found a solution.

Re: Problem with v7.8 Reformat Date: Convert to "(yyyy)" from "yyyy"
The date-time parser has undergone significant refactoring in v7.7.0.2 Beta, adding several new features and also becoming a bit more flexible.
The "yyyy" pattern is defined as 1-4 digits long, so that is why "01" is interpreted as a year. Perhaps this extra flexibility is counterproductive here.
We'll get this addressed in the next version.
