Interim guidance for British Columbia time zone changes 2026
The announcement was made a while back -- cannot believe that this is being worked on last minute. Super frustrating.
I am not a tech savvy user, but I have been committed to only using Surface Laptops for the past 6 years. However, I am super frustrated that I spent 3 days and nights trying to figure what's wrong with my clock and calendar on my laptop because my zoom account and Whatsapp account on the laptop are all messed up. It's the wrong time showing, (it's 1 hour delayed), and calendar on zoom, it won't let me schedule any meeting because zoom cannot detect my timezone , error message non stop. I tried everything from support articles, and cleared cache, history, uninstalled, resinstalled, and restart and etc. This morning, my zoom meeting scheduled for 1130am said meeting was at 1030am, and it's about to start in 28 minutes, but the time was already 1102am. I finally went to check this new time zone update that I suspected if it was the issue. Now I cannot use automatic time zone, and I cannot use automatic time change. I have to manually choose and manually update the time. Now, my whatsapp is fixed. Extremely frustrating. To clarify, the clock on my laptop display is the right time. But all the apps connected and depends on time and date, are all wrong.
