4/1/2007 & Daylight Saving Time Patch Failed AGAIN!

by bob.mercer . Updated 19 years, 6 months ago

Did this happen to anyone else? On 4/1/2007 at 2am all of the Windows systems we’ve checked so far reset the clock BACK 1 hour until our time setting programs reset the time back to the correct time??
All suspect machines were fully patched with both Windows updates and the TZedit patch. All suspect machines had auto daylight saving time checked and were on the Eastern Time Zone. Some machines were Win2k and some were WinXP. And instead of ignoring the old Daylight Saving Time setting the systems turned the clock BACK not forward, one hour.
This happened in machines in two different physical locations. We’re still waiting to hear from 2 other sites to see if they experienced this same anomaly.
