Windows 10: Windows 10 Timezone wont change and automatically changes to Canada... Im British

I reset my computer a few weeks back and have been having issues ever since, windows backup files wont leave and are taking about 200gb on my second hard drive. The time I have to set manually and when I click to change the timezone it wont save it or update towards that time. The time always changes back to Canada, about 7 hours behind me.


Any help?

Timezone Change

Hi Iselda,

For us to properly isolate the issue with changing the timezone, we would like to know the following:

• Were there any changes made on your computer prior to the issue (e.g., updates, software installation)?
• What is the exact error message that you are getting?
• To make sure that we have not missed on anything, what troubleshooting steps have you done so far?

As an initial resolution, we suggest that you follow the steps below:

• In the search box, type in cmd. You'll see Command Prompt listed.
  Right-click and select Run as Administrator.
• Type tzutil /l to see the list of all time zones.
• Once you have found your time zone, copy the description that is on the second line. Example:
  
  (UTC-06:00) Central Time (US & Canada)
  
  Central Standard Time <---- copy
  
• Afterwards, type tzutil /s "paste the time zone here". Like this:
  
  tzutil /s "Central Standard Time" (make sure to include the quotations!); then, Enter.
  
• Exit the Command Prompt, and then go to your time settings.

We look forward to your response.

 

Not changing Timezone automatically

So, I checked this again. When I went to Germany, it changed automatically, everything as it is supposed to. When I came back to Latvia, it stayed in Germany timezone. I connected to WIFI, checked that even MSN weather application switched to Latvia, but
the timezone stayed. I tried turning on/off location, autmatic timezone changes, but nothing helped. Then I set manually timezone and switched it back to automatic timezone change - it switched back to Germany timezone. Now this morning (after ~36h being in
Latvia) it has changed to correct timezone. I kind of didn't do anything, it just shows now correct again. But I'm pretty sure that the issue will reappear next time.

 

Not changing Timezone automatically

Hi,

My Windows 8.1 phone is not changing timezone automatically, though the settings are set to update automatically. Usually on other phones I have had, as soon as I remove plane mode and it connects to local network, it changes instantly. Here it doesn't work
like that. 1st time I had the issue it corrected the timezone only when I joined a WiFi (and have been in the country for more than 4 hours). This time, I got home, connected to WiFi in airport but it didn't change. Now after like 11 hours I got tired of waiting
and changed it manually and then set it back to changing automatically - it stayed correct.

It is pretty annoying since I have to change timezones 2x a week.

Anyone knows how the timezone update can be triggered? Is there any other settings that could affect this timezone change? Some GPS settings? Not using data roaming while not in home country? Any ideas?
