Zoom invitation coming to client with wrong time zone

I'm sending a Zoom Invitation to a client.

- My computer is set up as Eastern Time Zone

- I'm setting the invitations up as the Eastern Time Zone

- My client is in the Eastern Time Zone

- My client's computer is set up as Eastern Time Zone

- When this client gets  the invitation (I'm using Outlook to send the invitation) he received is as Central (Chicago/America)

 

What's going on ?

This issue likely comes from mismatches between time zone settings in Zoom, Outlook, or your operating system. To fix this, first, check your Zoom account settings and ensure the time zone is set to Eastern Time (ET).

Next, verify Outlook’s time zone settings by going to File > Options > Calendar > Time Zones and confirming it is correctly set. Additionally, check your computer’s system time zone to ensure it matches Eastern Time. If you are using the Zoom Outlook plugin, it may automatically assign a default time zone when creating meetings.

To avoid this, disable automatic meeting creation in the Zoom plugin settings and manually enter the Zoom details after setting the correct time and time zone for your event
