Default Time Zone
When setting up a new team it appears the Time zone is defaulting to Pacific Time. Where do I change the default so Central Time is used?
Sure. Teams uses Windows for Time, under time and language. On Win 11, right click on time and then adjust date and time.

ChrisHoardMVP This only shows languages, not time zones?

Update language, time, and date format
Click your profile picture at the top of the app, then select Settings > General and go to the Language section.
Selecting your preferred language and region also updates your time and date format.

Best, Chris- Hi Hoard, I can't open this link as "This Content was Archived", any link for it?
and according to what I know, teams may use the settings
Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\TimeZoneInformation
I have several users who face odd scene:
all the others(client, account, system, apps, o365suits,web) could display right time, except Teams in this laptop
I tried to set this by manual(I'm the administrator for app and local), tried w32tm /query /status;w32tm /tz;w32tm /resync, not work
but I change time zone to another then change it back, it works. I think this operation may overwrite something I didn't find yetSure. Teams uses Windows for Time, under time and language. On Win 11, right click on time and then adjust date and time.

- I have this issue, where I need to change the time zone on a specific Team within MS Teams, as it defaults to Pacific Time. However your last link above that states it will help is archived and not accessible. Is there another article or more help anyone can provide to fix this, for a specific team?
