Knowledge Base - How to change the time zone on your PC

Indiana has recently adopted Daylight Savings Time.  Most of the state (including Crawfordsville) is in the eastern time zone; Wabash will now be on the same time as New York year-round.  Most Wabash computers (and faculty/staff/student computers) will need to have their time zone reset from "Indiana Time" to Eastern time.  To make this change, do the following:

1. Click on the start button

2. Go to settings, and select Control Panel (on some computers you can access the Control Panel without first going to Settings)

3. Double click on “Date and Time”

4. Click on the Time Zone tab at the top

5. Click the drop down arrow and select “Eastern Time (US & Canada)”

6. Make sure the box next to “Automatically adjust clock for daylight savings changes” has a check mark in it

7. Click the Apply button

8. Click on the Date & Time tab at the top

9. Correct the current date and time if necessary. You can get the current time in Crawfordsville by going to www.time.gov

10. Click OK
