In general, the Time Zone setting in both Windows 11 and Windows 10 is based on the choice of Country or Region made during the initial setup process of the computer.

Once the computer is setup, it automatically starts obtaining Data & Time from an internet-based time server and starts displaying accurate Date & Time in the taskbar.

If you are travelling, your computer should automatically change its Time Zone based on your current new location and display the correct Date & Time, as applicable for the new location.

If this does not happen due to Location Services being disabled on your device or other reasons, you will be required to manually change the Time Zone on your computer.

1. Manually Change Time Zone in Windows 11
