Iconia W3 Win 8.1 end of daylight savings time bug?

leecollette

Has anyone else in the US had problems with the W3/Win 8.1 system clock today, i.e., the day Daylight Savings ended in the US (Nov. 3, 2013)?  The clock on my tablet is an hour ahead now even though my PC settings are set to automatically change the time.

Thank you.

Mine was not changed until I told it to sync with Internet time. OTOH my 8.1 desktop spent a lot of time doing something on boot but came up with the correct time.

Thanks, that's what I had to do too - sync internet time.  Took me a while to figure it out.  I'm glad I was able to find the way to sync the time on the PC with internet via Google.  Thanks for your input.

For others:

1) open desktop

2) right click (long press) on time on far right in tray

3) select adjust date and time

4) select internet time

5) select change settings

6) select update now

 

Is faster than it sounds.

Thanks (again) - this time for the detailed list of the steps to accomplish the sync.  I had already forgotten how to do it by the time I posted to the forum.  Now we have the solution right here!
