Teams is showing wrong time zone for users

Question

Notice in the attached image it says 12:14 pm... my time zone is 2h ahead.

Well actually, this user is suppose to be 1 hour ahead of me.

I went and logged into his device and set it to his actual timezone.

I logged in remotely and went to the 3 dots on teams>settings>accounts and orgs> manage >settings and privacy>time zone.

I changed the time zone to be the correct time zone. Yet, it is still wrong on teams.

I am now wondering, where does teams pull this information from? It seems like I have exhausted every obvious solution to this problem. So now I am looking to see if anyone here can help me.

I have looked at other articles and they havent been much help. I have tried to find settings in Azure, exchange, etc all of the admin centers, but was unable to find anything relevant.

Hi @Rijad Hadzic

When you update your region in your device's settings, Teams will automatically reflect those changes. 

To set your region on a Windows device:

1.Open Settings on your Windows device.

2.Select Time & language.

3.Under Region, select your region from the Country or region dropdown menu.

4.Keep your Regional format set to Recommended to sync your regional date and time with other apps, or choose another setting from the dropdown menu.

If your Teams time zone still shows incorrectly after setting it, try clearing the Teams cache and restarting.
