Weird - anyone has this problem?

[p/s it seems the autofill title existed from last year's exact same problem]

Interesting, I just noticed I have this issue on my surface running the win 10 preview. It has the disclaimer saying "daylight saving ended etc" when I open the clock... but still says 12:30 AM 7 April right now.

When you click on 'Change time zone...' is 'Automatically adjust clock for Daylight Saving Time' checked? My Win8.1 and Win10 machines both swapped over with no issues.

What version are you running? Enterprise / Pro?

Yup, the setting above to adjust for daylight saving automatically was checked on mine too, along with "set time automatically" and time zone is set correctly. I wonder if that second setting had something to do with it.

My home PC with 8.1 didn't update the clock (although it told me about it). It was peculiar because at the time I was rdp'd into a work pc running 8.1 that was fine.

A time resync fixed it though.

That shouldn't matter, DST is not affected by NTP.
