Note
When the system is set to automatically adjust the clock for daylight saving time adjustment,
systems without central time management and with activated EWF set the clock forward or
backward by one hour in the daylight saving time or standard time period each time the
system boots.
The reason for this behavior is that Windows Embedded Standard 2009 has a registry entry
that detects if the clock has been adjusted for daylight saving time. Since this file is also
protected against modification by the EWF, the marker is lost during the boot sequence and
the adjustment is made again.
We therefore recommend that you deactivate the automatic adjustment and change the
clock manually.
Procedure:
1. Switch off the EWF filter (ewfmgr c: -commitanddisable) and reboot the system.
2. Deactivate automatic adjustment in the Control Panel. In the Time Zone tab opened with
