Standard Time vs Daylight Savings Time

[mfavell]

Does Zoom set up meetings based on standard time or daylight savings time?

I am in the Eastern Standard Time Zone (EST) and we are currently on daylight savings time (EDT). My goal is to have a meeting at 4 pm local time on April 2nd.

So do I schedule the meeting for 4 pm, or do I schedule it for 3 pm to account for daylight savings time?

@mfavell , if you did not select any timezone when scheduling a meeting, it will follow the local timezone of the machine.

Sorry, this doesn't help.

The scheduling window says it's in Eastern Standard Time -- but here it's actually Eastern Daylight.

That option isn't available in the drop-down menu, nor is there any ability to delete the EST.

See the attached screen shot.

What to do?

Re-aliving this post two years later to say this is still an issue. We're in Central Daylight Savings time and there is not option for this, only Central Standard Time. 

A recent Zoom Knowledge Article says to re-set the clock on your computer, which I did. And my computer automatically adjusts for Daylight Savings Time. Is there another fix for this?
