Yes, I already checked the group policy and my profile is already an administrator.
The default Time zone is UTC+10:00 Brisbane, every time I change it to UTC+10:00 Canberra, Melbourne, Sydney. It will not allow me to change it. Here is the error.
Error: Your changes could not be saved.

2023-10-09T02:02:08.0333333+00:00 Yes, I have done that also. It will be back to the Brisbane time zone, it won't let me change it to Canberra, Melbourne, Sydney.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\TimeZoneInformation
Locate the Reg_DWord named DisableAutoDaylightTimeSet and set it to 0
