    "Set Time Zone Automatically" is bugged in Windows 10


    Hello, I am encountering issues with the time zone functionality for Windows 10. I have tested among 7 total devices, 5 of which being domain-joined systems and 2 personal systems including a laptop and desktop. These are all running the August 2021 cumulative update and are various feature updates, including 21H1, 20H2, and 1909. I have been dealing with this issue with previous cumulative updates as well, so this is not related to explicitly August 2021 cumulative update. Logically, when you have "Set Time Zone Automatically" enabled in Windows settings, the time zone is supposed to change

    :)

    Set Time Zone Automatically

    Your suggestion, while good, did not correct my problem. What it did do was lead me to the answer, thank you.

    Seems that the default location set for my computer was blank. When time zone was set to automatic, Windows didn't know where I was and probably reverted to the last entry in the zone list, Moscow. I re-entered my proper location, set the zone to Auto and
    everything was good to go.

    Automatic Time Zone Bug?

    Anyone else have the bug where "set time zone automatically" incorrectly chooses UTC +0:100 Amsterdam?
    I just installed KB4100403 on both of my computers, both exhibited the exact same issue. My correct time zone is -0:800 Pacific Time, for reference.

    Fluctuating Time Zone Setting

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community. Apologize for the inconvenience caused to you.

    I would suggest you to check if the values for “set time automatically” and “set time zone automatically” under Date and Time settings are “ON”. If not, then suggest you to make the vale to “ON” and check for the status.

    If the issue still persists, follow the steps provided below:

    • Press Windows key + R, type services.msc and press Enter.
    • Locate Windows Time from the list and double click on the service.
    • In Genereal tab, set the Startup type to Automatic.
    • Click on Apply and OK.

    Hope the information is helpful. Feel free to write to us for any other assistance with Windows, we’ll be glad to assist you.
