Use DateTime.TryParseExact(...)

hi I doubt it has anything to do with ie11. You are just trying to parse something that is not date or not formatted correctly. You should check (and write here) what string are you actually trying to convert. Put a breakpoint on the line with the ToDateTime() and check what is in the supplied argument.
