    System Clock Not Showing Daylight Time


    My system clock is showing Pacific Standard Time and there is no Check Box for daylight time.

    I found the suggestion of applying a Restore Point.

    I found a restore point from 3/15/19, 3 days ago. System Restore said I my System Disk has errors.

    I followed prompts although I ran chkdsk with both options unchecked:
    1) Automatically fix file system errors
    2) Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors

    The chkdsk results returned say the device error free and is ready to use.

    Do I simply set the clock to Alaska time until November? It seems the most expedient fix.

    Are there more 'elegant' options?

    thanks,

    DST varies from place to place. WU install a KB file with the rules to change a time zone according to DST start and end.
    The question is: Is WU installing those optional updates?

I am running Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit. My windows still uses the old Daylight Saving Time settings, which begins in early April and ends in late October. I need to install an update to accommodate the new DST in the United States. Can someone show me where to get the update? Thanks.

Just thought I would drop a reminder that this Sunday many of us residents of the USA will begin rising one hour early each day ... sigh. Personally, I despise the way this alters my "body clock" and sleep patters. It takes quite some time to adjust, only to revert back to "God's Time" in the...
