Excel does not support dates prior to 1/1/1900, however,  we could export such dates as simple strings: https://support.office.com/en-us/article/excel-specifications-and-limits-1672b34d-7043-467e-8e27-269d656771c3

How to reproduce:
 public partial class Form1 : RadForm
 {
     public Form1()
     {
         InitializeComponent();

         this.radGridView1.DataSource = this.GetData();
         this.radGridView1.AutoSizeColumnsMode = Telerik.WinControls.UI.GridViewAutoSizeColumnsMode.Fill;
     }

     private object GetData()
     {
         DataTable dt = new DataTable();
         dt.Columns.Add("Id", typeof(int));
         dt.Columns.Add("Name", typeof(string));
         dt.Columns.Add("Bool", typeof(bool));
         dt.Columns.Add("Date", typeof(DateTime));

         DateTime date = new DateTime(1850, 1, 1);
         for (int i = 0; i < 100; i++)
         {
             dt.Rows.Add(i, "Name " + i, i % 2 == 0, date.AddYears(i));
         }

         return dt;
     }
     
     FieldInfo fi;
     private void radButton1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
     {
         //Old Export using the ExcelML format
         this.fi = typeof(Telerik.WinControls.UI.Export.ExcelML.CellElement).GetField("_dataElement", System.Reflection.BindingFlags.Instance | System.Reflection.BindingFlags.NonPublic);
         ExportToExcelML exporter = new ExportToExcelML(this.radGridView1);
         string fileName = @"..\..\data.xls";
         exporter.RunExport(fileName);

         //New export utilizing the SpreadProcessing libraries
         GridViewSpreadExport spreadExporter = new GridViewSpreadExport(this.radGridView1);

         SpreadExportRenderer exportRenderer = new SpreadExportRenderer();
         spreadExporter.RunExport(@"..\..\data.xlsx", exportRenderer);
     }
 }


Workaround: handle the CellFormatting event
public partial class Form1 : RadForm
{
    public Form1()
    {
        InitializeComponent();

        this.radGridView1.DataSource = this.GetData();
        this.radGridView1.AutoSizeColumnsMode = Telerik.WinControls.UI.GridViewAutoSizeColumnsMode.Fill;
    }

    private object GetData()
    {
        DataTable dt = new DataTable();
        dt.Columns.Add("Id", typeof(int));
        dt.Columns.Add("Name", typeof(string));
        dt.Columns.Add("Bool", typeof(bool));
        dt.Columns.Add("Date", typeof(DateTime));

        DateTime date = new DateTime(1850, 1, 1);
        for (int i = 0; i < 100; i++)
        {
            dt.Rows.Add(i, "Name " + i, i % 2 == 0, date.AddYears(i));
        }

        return dt;
    }
    
    FieldInfo fi;
    private void radButton1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        //Old Export using the ExcelML format
        this.fi = typeof(Telerik.WinControls.UI.Export.ExcelML.CellElement).GetField("_dataElement", System.Reflection.BindingFlags.Instance | System.Reflection.BindingFlags.NonPublic);
        ExportToExcelML exporter = new ExportToExcelML(this.radGridView1);
        exporter.ExcelCellFormatting += Exporter_ExcelCellFormatting;
        string fileName = @"..\..\data.xls";
        exporter.RunExport(fileName);

        //New export utilizing the SpreadProcessing libraries
        GridViewSpreadExport spreadExporter = new GridViewSpreadExport(this.radGridView1);
         spreadExporter.CellFormatting += SpreadExporter_CellFormatting;

        SpreadExportRenderer exportRenderer = new SpreadExportRenderer();
        spreadExporter.RunExport(@"..\..\data.xlsx", exportRenderer);
    }

    private void SpreadExporter_CellFormatting(object sender, Telerik.WinControls.Export.CellFormattingEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e.GridRowIndex >= 1 && e.GridCellInfo.ColumnInfo is GridViewDateTimeColumn && ((DateTime)e.GridCellInfo.Value).Year < 1900)
        {
            Telerik.Windows.Documents.Spreadsheet.Model.CellSelection cell = e.CellSelection as Telerik.Windows.Documents.Spreadsheet.Model.CellSelection;
            cell.SetValue(e.GridCellInfo.Value.ToString());
        }
    }

    private void Exporter_ExcelCellFormatting(object sender, Telerik.WinControls.UI.Export.ExcelML.ExcelCellFormattingEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e.GridRowIndex > -1 && e.GridCellInfo.ColumnInfo is GridViewDateTimeColumn && ((DateTime)e.GridCellInfo.Value).Year < 1900)
        {
            DataElement data = new DataElement();
            data.DataItem = e.GridCellInfo.Value.ToString();
            this.fi.SetValue(e.ExcelCellElement, data);
        }
    }
}

Bind the grid to the following DataTable:

            DataTable dt = new DataTable();     
            dt.Columns.Add("X.Y"); 
            dt.Columns.Add("X");   
            
            dt.Rows.Add("Data X.Y", "Data X");

            this.radGridView1.DataSource = dt;

You will notice that the second column "X" is missing.

Note: if you change the order of adding the columns, both columns will be added.

To reproduce:

            this.radGridView1.Columns.Add("FIRST CELL ID A");

            this.radGridView1.Rows.Add("405-55-214-41763");
            this.radGridView1.Rows.Add("405-55-214-46682");
            this.radGridView1.Rows.Add("405-55-214-46682");

            this.radGridView1.AutoSizeColumnsMode = Telerik.WinControls.UI.GridViewAutoSizeColumnsMode.Fill;
            this.radGridView1.MultiSelect = true;
            this.radGridView1.SelectionMode = Telerik.WinControls.UI.GridViewSelectionMode.CellSelect;

Please refer to the attached gif file illustrating better the text moving. 

Workaround: 
        private void radGridView1_CellFormatting(object sender, Telerik.WinControls.UI.CellFormattingEventArgs e)
        {
            e.CellElement.BorderBottomWidth = 2;
            e.CellElement.BorderRightWidth = 2;
            e.CellElement.BorderTopWidth = 2;
            e.CellElement.BorderLeftWidth = 2;
        }

To reproduce: run the attached project and toggle the checkbox in the header cell of the child template. 

Workaround: use a custom GridCheckBoxHeaderCellElement

Workaround: create a custom GridPrintStyle class

Workaround: cancel the PageChanging event

Workaround:

        private void radGridView1_CellEndEdit(object sender, GridViewCellEventArgs e)
        {
            RadDropDownListEditor editor = e.ActiveEditor as RadDropDownListEditor;
            if (editor!=null)
            {
                RadDropDownListEditorElement el = editor.EditorElement as RadDropDownListEditorElement;
                el.AutoCompleteSuggest.DropDownList.ClosePopup();
            } 
        }

To reproduce:

   Sub New()

        For index = 1 To 1000
            dt.Rows.Add(index, "Item" & index)
        Next
        Me.RadGridView1.DataSource = dt

        End Using

        Process.Start(pdfFile)
    End Sub

Workaround: use the PdfExportRenderer.PdfExporting event where you have access to the document and you can make any customizations to it:
        Dim pdfFile As String = "..\..\exportedFile.pdf"
        Dim pdfExporter As New GridViewPdfExport(Me.RadGridView1)
        pdfExporter.ShowHeaderAndFooter = True
        pdfExporter.FitToPageWidth = True
        Dim renderer As New PdfExportRenderer()
        AddHandler renderer.PdfExporting, AddressOf PdfExporting
        pdfExporter.RunExport(pdfFile, renderer)

    Private Sub PdfExporting(sender As Object, e As PdfExportingEventArgs)
        Dim document As RadFixedDocument = e.Document
        Dim provider As Telerik.Windows.Documents.Fixed.FormatProviders.Pdf.PdfFormatProvider = New Telerik.Windows.Documents.Fixed.FormatProviders.Pdf.PdfFormatProvider()

        For Each page As RadFixedPage In document.Pages
            Dim editor As FixedContentEditor = New FixedContentEditor(page)
            editor.Position.Translate(page.Size.Width / 2, page.Size.Height - 50)

            Dim pageNum As Integer = document.Pages.IndexOf(page) + 1
            editor.DrawText(pageNum & " of " & document.Pages.Count)
        Next 
    End Sub

Use attached to reproduce.

Workaround:
class MyGridCheckBoxHeaderCellElement : GridCheckBoxHeaderCellElement
{
    public MyGridCheckBoxHeaderCellElement(GridRowElement row, GridViewColumn col) : base(col, row)
    {

    bool suspenUpdate = false;
    protected override void checkbox_ToggleStateChanged(object sender, StateChangedEventArgs args)

        {
            base.SetCheckBoxState();
        }

}

In self-reference if you bind the grid to a record having is ParentId the same as its Id, the grid will try to create a row which is parented by itself. This is not valid input data and we should throw a proper exception, otherwise the application will freeze.

How to reproduce: 
public partial class Form2 : Form
{
    private BindingList<DataObject> data;

    public Form2()
    {
        InitializeComponent();

        this.radGridView1.AutoGenerateHierarchy = true;
        this.data = new BindingList<DataObject>();

        int count = 10;
        for (int i = 0; i < count; i++)
        {
            DataObject p = new DataObject();
            p.Id = i;
            p.Name = "Parent " + i;
            this.data.Add(p);

            for (int j = 0; j < count; j++)
            {
                DataObject c = new DataObject();
                c.Id = count + j + i * count;
                c.Name = "Child " + i;
                c.ParentId = i;
                this.data.Add(c);
            }
        }

        this.radButton1.Click += RadButton1_Click;
    }

    private void RadButton1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        if (this.radGridView1.Relations.Count > 0)
        {
            this.radGridView1.Relations.Clear();
        }

        this.radGridView1.DataSource = this.data;
        this.radGridView1.Relations.AddSelfReference(this.radGridView1.MasterTemplate, "Id", "ParentId");

    }
}

public class DataObject
{
    public int Id { get; set; }

    public string Name { get; set; }

    public int ParentId { get; set; }
}


Workaround: set the ParentId of the parent records

int count = 10;
for (int i = 0; i < count; i++)
{
    DataObject p = new DataObject();
    p.Id = i;
    p.Name = "Parent " + i;
    p.ParentId = -1;
    this.data.Add(p);

    for (int j = 0; j < count; j++)
    {
        DataObject c = new DataObject();
        c.Id = count + j + i * count;
        c.Name = "Child " + i;
        c.ParentId = i;
        this.data.Add(c);
    }
}

Workaround: prevent the child templates from serializing
public class MyRadGridView : RadGridView
{
    public override string ThemeClassName
    {
        get
        {
            return typeof(RadGridView).FullName;

    }

    public override void SaveLayout(string fileName)
    {
        MyGridViewLayoutSerializer ser = new MyGridViewLayoutSerializer(this.XmlSerializationInfo);
        using (XmlTextWriter writer = new XmlTextWriter(fileName, Encoding.UTF8))
        {
            writer.Formatting = Formatting.Indented;
            writer.WriteStartElement("RadGridView");
            ser.WriteObjectElement(writer, this);
        }
    }
}

public class MyGridViewLayoutSerializer : GridViewLayoutSerializer
{
    public MyGridViewLayoutSerializer(ComponentXmlSerializationInfo componentSerializationInfo)
        : base(componentSerializationInfo)
    { }

    protected override bool ShouldSerializeValue(object component, PropertyDescriptor property, PropertySerializationMetadata overwriteMetadata)
    {
        if (property.Name == "Templates")
        {
            return false;
        }

        return base.ShouldSerializeValue(component, property, overwriteMetadata);
    }
}

How to reproduce:
public partial class Form1 : Form
{
    public Form1()
    {
        InitializeComponent();

        this.radGridView1.DataSource = this.GetData();
        this.radGridView1.EditorRequired += RadGridView1_EditorRequired;
    }

    private void RadGridView1_EditorRequired(object sender, EditorRequiredEventArgs e)
    {
        if (this.radGridView1.CurrentColumn.Index == 0)
        {
            e.Editor = new RadTimePickerElement();
        }
    }

    private DataTable GetData()
    {
        DataTable dt = new DataTable();
        dt.Columns.Add("Date", typeof(DateTime));

        for (int i = 0; i < 20; i++)
        {
            DataRow r = dt.NewRow();
            dt.Rows.Add(r);
        }
        
        return dt;
    }
}

Workaround: the scenario is not completely valid as when handling the EditorRequiredEvent one should use the GridTimePickerEditor
1. Use the column`s EditorType property: 
((GridViewDateTimeColumn)this.radGridView1.Columns["Date"]).EditorType = GridViewDateTimeEditorType.TimePicker
2. Alternatively, handle the event this way:
private void RadGridView1_EditorRequired(object sender, EditorRequiredEventArgs e)
{
    if (this.radGridView1.CurrentColumn.Index == 0)
    {
        e.Editor = new GridTimePickerEditor();
    }
}

Use attached to reproduce.
- Check the filter box
- Uncheck the header checkbox.
- The cells are still visible and you cannot click on the data check boxes.

 

Use attached to reproduce.

Workaround:
class MyDataCellElement : GridDataCellElement

        {
            return ranges;
        }

        string criteria = this.RowInfo.SearchCache[this.ColumnInfo] as string;

        int index = -1;

To reproduce:

1. Add a GridViewCheckBoxColumn with EnableHeaderCheckBox property set to true.
2. Use the TypeConverter demonstrated in the following help article: http://docs.telerik.com/devtools/winforms/gridview/columns/converting-data-types

When you run the application and try to toggle the check box in the header cell, a FormatException occurs. 

Workaround: modify the TypeConverter:

public class ToggleStateConverter : TypeConverter
{
    public override bool CanConvertTo(ITypeDescriptorContext context, Type destinationType)
    {
        return destinationType == typeof(ToggleState);
    }

    public override object ConvertTo(ITypeDescriptorContext context, CultureInfo culture, object value, Type destinationType)
    {
        char charValue = (char)value;

        switch (charValue)
        {
            case 'Y':
                return ToggleState.On;
            case 'N':
                return ToggleState.Off;
            case 'M':
                return ToggleState.Indeterminate;
        }

        return base.ConvertTo(context, culture, value, destinationType);
    }

    public override bool CanConvertFrom(ITypeDescriptorContext context, Type sourceType)
    {
        return sourceType == typeof(ToggleState) || sourceType == typeof(bool);
    }

    public override object ConvertFrom(ITypeDescriptorContext context, CultureInfo culture, object value)
    {
        ToggleState state;
        bool boolValue;

        if (value is ToggleState)
        {
            state = (ToggleState)value ; 
            switch (state)
            {
                case ToggleState.On:
                    return 'Y';
                case ToggleState.Off:
                    return 'N';
                case ToggleState.Indeterminate:
                    return 'M';
            }
        }
        else if (value is bool)
        {
            boolValue = (bool)value;
             switch (boolValue)
            {
                case true:
                    return 'Y';
                case false:
                    return 'N';
                default:
                    return 'M';
            }
        }
       
        return base.ConvertFrom(context, culture, value);
    }
}

Currently, DisplayFormatType.GeneralDate, DisplayFormatType.ShortDate, DisplayFormatType.MediumDate all return culture's DateTimeFormat.ShortDatePattern. 

Workaround: 
GridViewDateTimeColumn columnDateTime = this.radGridView1.Columns["Date"] as GridViewDateTimeColumn;
columnDateTime.ExcelExportType = DisplayFormatType.Custom; 
columnDateTime.ExcelExportFormatString  = "dd/MM/yyyy hh:mm:ss";

To reproduce: bind the grid to a DataTable where one of the columns doesn't allow null values. Try to add a new record by using the new row in the grid. Even though you specify default values in the DefaultValuesNeeded event, the error still occurs. Please refer to the attached sample project and gif file.

Workaround: handle the RadGridView.DataError event:

private void RadGridView1_DataError(object sender, Telerik.WinControls.UI.GridViewDataErrorEventArgs e)
{
    if (e.Exception.ToString().Contains("does not allow nulls"))
    {
        e.Cancel = true;
    }
}
