DateTime.Parse(YOUR_DATE_OBJECT).ToShortDateString();

ToShortDateString() method will help you convert DateTime To Just Date String,format dd/mm/yyyy.

In C# 10 you can use DateOnly.

DateOnly date = new(2011, 02, 19);
string output = date.ToString("dd/M/yyyy", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture);

This works for me:

string dateTimeString = "21‎-‎10‎-‎2014‎ ‎15‎:‎40‎:‎30";
dateTimeString = Regex.Replace(dateTimeString, @"[^\u0000-\u007F]", string.Empty);

string inputFormat = "dd-MM-yyyy HH:mm:ss";
string outputFormat = "yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss";
var dateTime = DateTime.ParseExact(dateTimeString, inputFormat, CultureInfo.InvariantCulture);
string output = dateTime.ToString(outputFormat);

Console.WriteLine(output);

On my login form I am showing the current time on a label. 

    public FrmLogin()
    {
        InitializeComponent();
        lblTime.Text = DateTime.Now.ToString("dd/MM/yyyy hh:mm:ss tt");
    }

    private void tmrTime_Tick(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        lblHora.Text = DateTime.Now.ToString("dd/MM/yyyy hh:mm:ss tt");
    }

DateTime dt = DateTime.ParseExact(yourObject.ToString(), "MM/dd/yyyy hh:mm:ss tt", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture);

string s = dt.ToString("dd/M/yyyy", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture);

You have to pass the CultureInfo to get the result with slash(/)

DateTime.Now.ToString("dd/MM/yyyy", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture)

DateTime.ToString("dd/MM/yyyy") may give the date in dd-MM-yyyy format. This depends on your short date format. If short date format is not as per format, we have to replace character '-' with '/' as below: 

 date = DateTime.Now.ToString("dd/MM/yyyy").Replace('-','/');

It's simple--tostring() accepts a parameter with this format...

DateTime.ToString("dd/MM/yyyy");

Here is a method, that takes datetime(format:01-01-2012 12:00:00) and returns string(format: 01-01-2012) 

public static string GetDateFromDateTime(DateTime datevalue){
    return datevalue.ToShortDateString(); 
}

As everyone else said, but remember CultureInfo.InvariantCulture!

string s = dt.ToString("dd/M/yyyy", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture)

OR escape the '/'.

You can use the ToString() method, if you want a string representation of your date, with the correct formatting.

Like:

DateTime date = new DateTime(2011, 02, 19);
string strDate = date.ToString("dd/MM/yyyy");

First of all, you don't convert a DateTime object to some format, you display it in some format.

Given an instance of a DateTime object, you can get a formatted string in that way like this:

DateTime date = new DateTime(2011, 2, 19);
string formatted = date.ToString("dd/M/yyyy");

If you want the string use - 

DateTime.ToString("dd/MM/yyyy")
