Windows 10: The country's time zone does not change

Hello, I live in Kazakhstan and recently the time zone in the country changed from UTC+6 to UTC+5, but nothing has changed in Windows itself, is it possible to somehow change the time zone myself? Do not change the time, namely indicate Astana UTC+5, not UTC+6

:)

 

automatic time zone adjustment in countries with multiple time zones

Carriers in small countries like Portugal may not have time zone info being sent over cellular networks, which is the time source Windows Phone uses first, so the auto time zone may not work.

Speaking as a Canadian whose country spans 6 time zones, and who has travelled in the United States and Australia, two other large countries that span multiple time zones, the feature works their because those towers HAVE to be programmed to send time zone
info otherwise it would be a really poor experience for the end user. My phone is usually pretty good about changing time when getting off the plane in a new time zone for example.

 

Time Zones do not change

Hi Andre,

Thanks for taking the time to help. I appreciate it.

I opened the account on my computer which has Administrator Privileges and ran regedit.

In the first string you suggested, it was already set to NTP.

In the second string, I changed the value to 3, as instructed.

Regrettably, after the restart - the trouble is still present. The Time Zone is still stuck on the time zone of the place I started my trip from.

I opened Settings>Time and confirmed that the toggle is set to Automatically Detect/Change the Time Zone, but it clearly isn't working. Additionally, the place where it displays the Time Zone (which if you click on usually drops down a list where you can
select a new TZ) is grayed out and not longer drops down a list if you click upon it.

Also grayed out is the toggle allowing you to choose to ignore Daylight Savings.

Hmmm. Puzzling.

 

Unable to change the time zone in Windows 10

I'm running Windows 10 Pro. My time zone is Jerusalem, but I need to change it to Eastern to test a program I'm working on.

The time zone won't change. I have tried:

• From the clock/calendar, when I change it - it changes back.
  
• From Control Panel - Date and Time, "Change time zone..." - when I click save I get the message "Error occurred - your changes could not be saved."
  
• As the Built-in Administrator from the command line using tzutil - I get the message "Insufficient privileges to set the current time zone."
  

The registry key TimeZoneInformation has Full Control for Administrators

Administrators are listed in the Local Security Setting "Change the Time Zone"

Any suggestions?
