How do you make your computer think you're in a different time zone?
Configure Automatic Time Zone
From your Windows 10 desktop, right click on the time in the bottom right-hand corner of your screen. From the context menu select Adjust Date/Time. From the Date & Time settings window flip the toggle under Set Time Zone Automatically to the On position.
What is the easiest way to understand time zones?
This is pretty easy to work out with simple mathematics. There are 24 hours in a day, and 360 degrees of longitude encompassing the globe – dividing 360 by 24 gives you the 15 degrees of longitude that equates to a one-hour difference in each time zone.
How do I stop people from changing time zones?
Go to User Local Policies -> User Rights Assignment. On the right, double-click the option Change the time zone. Select an entry, use the Remove button in the policy dialog.
Why is it important to be aware of time zones?
Imagine if the entire Earth had a single time zone. Noon would be the middle of the day in some places, but it would be morning, evening, and the middle of the night in others. Since different parts of Earth enter and exit daylight at different times, we need different time zones.
