Windows 10: Question as to Scheduled Events and DST Time Changes

Does anyone know if Windows is smart enough to recognize that a scheduled event has already run when the event is set for between 1:00 am and 2:00 am on the fall date that the DST goes back to real time? I'm redoing some maintenance events and I need to know if some of them may run twice on that date. If so, I may need to get ceative with some batch files.

Thanks.

DST messing up calendar appointment times

I'm sad to say the fixes are the usual as well: Ensure the source calendar is set to a proper default time zone, double-check your device's time zone and double-check the time zone on the event itself.

DST issues are extremely hard to diagnose because they happen only twice a year. Anecdotes are not data, but in my professional life whenever I'm diagnosing a DST issue it's because there's something set wrong on the device/calendar/event. My favourite DST
issue was discovering the device's time zone was set to Pacific US & Canada when the user lived in Brisbane, Australia. Brisbane is in a state that does not do DST at all, yet the user never questioned why their events shifted by an hour twice a year. They
just corrected their events. I set their device to the right time zone and that was the end of their time zone issues.

Google calendar event times are shown as -1h

Having the same problem with Lumia 520. It has been doing this since the change from DST to non-DST time. If I add events before the change to non-DST time, everything is OK. If I add events after the change, they move one hour back.



Finally found someone reporting the same problem somewhere.



Have you achieved anything in trying to solve this problem? Thanks for information.
