Time Zones for PCs® shows an incorrect time
First make sure that your PC's clock is set correctly both for
time and time zone. This is detailed in your
User's Manual.
At the bottom right of the main
Time Zones for PCs®
window there is a
master clock displaying UTC. This is the time from your PC's
clock converted to UTC. It has to be correct in order for any other
time given by
Time Zones for PCs®
to be correct.
Compare this clock to the current Universal Time given on the
TimeZonesForPCs.com
website. Our servers are synchronized to a network
of atomic clocks and always maintain the correct time to within a
fraction of a second.
If there is a time difference your PC's clock needs to be adjusted.
If the master clock is correct but the time shown for a particular
location is incorrect, the
Time Zones for PCs®
database may be out of date. You can find the release date of the database
currently installed on your machine by selecting
Help from the main menu, and then
About Time Zones for PCs...
If your PC has the latest database installed and a particular location
is still showing an incorrect time you may have found an error in the
database. We actively monitor all available sources and
keep the database as up to date as possible. However occasional errors
can occur. This is most likely to happen with certain countries that
give inadequate (or sometimes zero) public notice before making time
zone changes. Please let us know so we can investigate.
How do I uninstall Time Zones for PCs®?
If you wish to uninstall Time Zones for PCs®
for any reason, simply select the Add/Remove Programs option under
Control Panel, and then select Time Zones for PCs
from the list of installed applications.
