we always recommend to install security updates , but due to this month updates includes the government’s daylight saving time change order for 2023,
we find the workaound to enable daylight saving feature if the patch failed to install for any reason…
***Important Note : this workaround already tested on Windows 10 22H2 and Windows Server 2016.
1- Go to any Windows Machine that already has the April patch ( for example Windows 10 or Windows server 2016).
2- Exprot the below 2 registry keys by the below PowerShell commands (open powershell –> Run As Administrator .):
PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> reg export HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\TimeZoneInformation d:\Win22H2-DaylightSaving-01.reg
reg export “HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Time Zones\Egypt Standard Time” d:\Win22H2-DaylightSaving-02-EST.reg
3- copy those reg keys files to the machine that cannot install the April patch on it for any reason, and run the below powershell commands commands (Run As Administrator) :
must be go to the folder you already store the reg keys on it by cd command
reg import .\Win22H2-DaylightSaving-02-EST.reg
