User is unable to modify the date and time of the calendar event

If Microsoft Teams is displaying the wrong time or timezone for you, there are a few steps you can take to try and resolve the issue:

Install-Module -Name ExchangeOnlineManagement -Scope CurrentUser
Import-Module ExchangeOnlineManagement
Connect-ExchangeOnline

Get-MailboxCalendarConfiguration -Identity nishant@ucadmin.info
Get-MailboxRegionalConfiguration -Identity nishant@ucadmin.info

Update Both Calendar and Regional Settings

Set-MailboxCalendarConfiguration -Identity nishant@ucadmin.info -WorkingHoursTimeZone “Eastern Standard Time”
Set-MailboxRegionalConfiguration -Identity nishant@ucadmin.info -WorkingHoursTimeZone “Eastern Standard Time”

Please replace “Eastern Standard Time” with your actual time zone as needed.

Note: Set-MailboxRegionalConfiguration uses -TimeZone, not -WorkingHoursTimeZone.

โœ… Check Teams Settings

Sometimes Teams uses its own settings or caches. Try this:

  1. Go to Settings in Teams.
  2. Under General, check the Language and time zone.
  3. Make sure the time zone matches your local time.

โœ… Check Outlook Web Settings

Teams pulls calendar data from Outlook. Go to:

  • https://outlook.office.com
  • Settings โ†’ View all Outlook settings โ†’ General โ†’ Language and time
  • Confirm the time zone is correct.

โœ… Restart Teams / Clear Cache

After making changes, restart Teams or clear its cache:

  1. Quit Teams.
  2. Delete cache folders:
    • %appdata%\Microsoft\Teams
    • %localappdata%\Microsoft\Teams
  3. Restart Teams.
