How to Change the Time Zone on your computer

Summary

If users notice the time is incorrect on their computers, it's most likely the timezone. It's a simple tweak to the computer settings that doesn't require administrative rights. The date and time should sync if you are connected on the network, so if your time is way off, make sure you're computer is on the network first.

Follow the instructions below if the Time Zone is incorrect on your computer.

Instructions

1. Start typing "Time zone" in the Windows search bar. You'll see the best match for "Change the time zone."

2. A pop up Window will appear asking for credentials. Click "No".

3. You should see the Time zone option and change it to your location. If you don't, skip to step 4.

4. If you don't see the Time Zone with a drop down in step 3, your version of Windows 11 may have updated. You will need to scroll down a little and find "Additional clocks".

5. Once you click on Additional clocks, click on the "Date and Time" tab, then click the button "Change time zone".
