I am having problems adjusting the time and date on my computer. It currently reads 2:30 am on November 20 when it is in fact 11:30pm on November 19. I have tried changing the time zone (which was previously wrong) as suggested in previous questions/answers posted (by going into Hotmail - and also uninstalling and reinstalling the calendar), but nothing works. I am getting frustrated. Please help!

Hi

Go to the Desktop.

Click the Clock at the right side of the Taskbar.

Click the Change Date and Time Settings option.

In the clock window, select the Change Date and Time button.

In the Calendar, select the Date.

In the box where the current time is showing, change the time.

Click OK.

Click Apply/OK.

Regards

    my time on my computer. Not the other two, changed back to civilian time, I Must use military or 24 hour time, this is a very serious problem, both with my civilian contacts, all my jobs are 24 hour time, and the work I do and interact are all military time, but now all reports are either changed, or completely rejected outright. This is a huge safety problem for the people in the field.

    I tried clicking on the clock, like I used to, and all I get is the calendar. no way to change the time. I also went thru the 5 or 6 trouble shoting things, again none of them worked. this is beginning to annoy me, and everything is at a standstill.

    why is it so dang hard to change this thinf from715pm to 1915?
