Convert time format: 5h00 to 5:00 - excel

So my problem is i copy paste an agenda in excel with time in a format like 9h20. I want to convert it into 9:20 but i can't find the way to do it.
Just changing format doesn't work.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Use:
=TIMEVALUE(SUBSTITUTE(A1,"h",":"))
and format as Time

How to convert a different UTC format to PDT by an Excel formula?

A system I am using provides UTC time in the following format: "yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss.000".
What Excel formula could I use to convert this to a date and time format of: "yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss.000 PST?
I'm a complete noob, and even finding similar questions didn't get me to figure out the proper syntax and make it work.
Thanks for any help in advance!

Convert from US to UK format

How do I modify the following to be D/M/YYYY?
8/7/20 6:20 PM
8/17/20 4:24 PM
Currently it is M/D/YY
Here is what I have done to no avail:
=VALUE(LEFT(A2,FIND(" ",A2,1)-1)) - This is to extract the date portion (because excel sees it as text)
Tried to convert the date to a D/M/Y using 'text to columns' but that does not work. Excel sees the middle number as the date so anything over 12 and it throws an error.
Thank for any help on this. It's breaking me.
use:
=TEXTJOIN("/",,FILTERXML("<a><b>"&SUBSTITUTE(LEFT(TEXT(A1,"d/m/yy")&" ",FIND(" ",TEXT(A1,"d/m/yy")&" ")-1),"/","</b><b>")&"</b></a>","//b["&{2,1,3}&"]"))+MID(TEXT(A1,"\ hh:mm AM/PM"),FIND(" ",TEXT(A1,"\ hh:mm AM/PM"))+1,99)
and then format the output as desired.
Note: I am US based so I had to reverse it in the demo.
Another Note: If one is US based dealing with UK dates then change the d/m/yy to m/d/yy and it will work.

Deciding the date format in Excel/VBA

Could you please help me, how can i decide the date format about this date? : 7/6/2019
Do you know some best practices for this issue? I check the format as MM/dd/yyyy and for example if i send a message from America to Europe the date value might change to 6/7/2019 when i open it.
Yes, sometimes, it is quite confusing. So I used to convert the date into text to avoid that.
Here is how I do it. Once it is shown in text, it won't be changed according to the system setting.
Here is how to convert date to text
Hope this helps.

Make a custom time format in Excel

How can I create a custom time format?
I'm using a Excel sheet to track my work hours. And I add up the work hours for each day and get a week total. But it seems it cant display above 24:00. unless I change the format to hh:mm:ss.
I don't want the extra 2 digits at the end but the only other option is hh:mm.#
I want it to be hh:mm but display more than 24 hrs (like 36:50).
I also don't understand the "custom" option can someone help?
Use:
[hh]:mm
As your custom format

Convert mm'ss'' to mm:ss in excel

How I can convert a register of time of for example 28'30'' to 28:30 in excel?
I have tried to change the formatting in custom but it doesn't work. There is any formula to change it?
Thanks!
To get it as a time in minutes and seconds (if it was originally a string in A2):-
=TIMEVALUE("0:"&SUBSTITUTE(SUBSTITUTE(A2,"'",":"),"""",""))
and then format cell as time.
=LEFT(A1,2)&":"&MID(A1,4,2)
for text-to-text conversion.
