Wrong time zone and date format
Thanks, I'll take a look at that. It's astounding, though, that this is so hard to do, i.e. not possible with the Office Admin GUI. Or am I missing something?
Is Powershell the ONLY way to set the region and time zone for a single region tenant who is not in the US? How do US businesses on the East cost change from the default Pacific time to their time zone? Is Powershell really the only option?
Surely, Microsoft can't expect everyone to default to a US setting. Why do they make it so hard to apply non-US as a tenant setting?
PowerShell is the best option for people who enjoy writing code. It is much easier to change a setting in SharePoint by simply going to the appropriate settings page than trying to write a PowerShell script.

Thanks but I already know that. The link you posted is about SharePoint. My question is about OneDrive for Business (yes, I know, that's SharePoint, too), at the TENANT level. How can I set the default time zone at the tenant level, so that new users' OneDrives get the correct time zone by default and I don't have to manually set it??

Sorry but there is no way to do this, it is quite annoying.

I can't believe that there is a world of Office 365 users out there, all around the globe, whose OneDrive defaults to US regional settings.
