Re: Daylight Savings Time

Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry

I did try a soft reset after making running the registry fix and
unfortunatly, it didn't work. I will try your suggest and try using the
Remote Spy. That is something I have never used so hopefully it is pretty
self explanatory.

Thanks

OK, so it's a WM device. I think that, in order to get the shell, which
is the piece that handles DST transitions to know about your change to the
registry, you're going to have to either soft reset the device (which
starts all of the auto-start programs, including the shell, again, and
this time it will load a different set of registry settings), or you're
going to have to figure out what message is sent from the control panel
when you make a change to the timezone and duplicate that (you might try
Remote Spy++ to see if there's a WM_SETTINGCHANGE message sent).

For consistency, I'd be much more inclined to just require a soft reset.
You know that it will work. In that case, all you have to be sure of is
that the registry has been persisted before you push the reset button.

I just ran the registry changes for the daylight savings changes and
changed the date and time to 1:59 AM on 3/11/07 and when the time hit
2:00 it didn't change. In order for the time to change to 3:00 like it
should, I have to apply the reg fix and then manually change the time
zone and then exit and then change it back. So my question is, how can
I do this pragmatically? I tried using the opennetcf by calling the code
below however, it still wouldn't work.

OpenNETCF.Web.Services2.TimeZone.TIME_ZONE_INFORMATION originaltz =
OpenNETCF.Web.Services2.TimeZone.GetTimeZoneInfo();
OpenNETCF.Web.Services2.TimeZone.SetTimeZoneInfo(originaltz);
