Anonymous

Ive been having this issue since i started using teams. The correct timezone for me is CEST (Central European Summer Time). For some reason, Teams always displays the wrong time although in my MS Account the timezone and language settings are correct. Also, for people that work in the same office, Teams shows me that they apparently are in the same timezone..???? How can i resolve this?

OS: MacOS Ventura 13.4

Teams Version 1.6.00.11156.

Thanks!

Hello,

I had the same issue and tried just about everything, including the troubleshooting steps provided here. I discovered a solution that worked for me.

  1. Go to Outlook website.
  2. Click the settings gear icon on the top right corner.
  3. Go to "General" in the left pane and then ensure you are viewing "Language and time".
  4. Click "Change" under "Time zone".
  5. In the newly-opened pane, under "Time zones", there should be a message saying your "meeting time" is set to a different time zone. Click "Yes, update" button to reconcile the time zones.
  6. Restart Teams.

    The issue is not solved at all.
    I'm on GMT+2 timezone, and Teams shows that I am with 3h in advance (ex: 4PM => it shows 7PM) ;(
    This is on Windows 11 and the Teams New application. I can mention the Win11 itself, shows the correct time and timezone.
    I did setup this on outlook.com as well, without any modifications under computer Teams app (even if I restarted the app multiple times).

    Hi gianni_0246,

    Remember to use quit in Teams to make the setting work, read this MS web site.
