#Can't change timezone?

I'm having this weird issue. Since I built my pc (2 years ago), my timezone on my pc is wrong. It uses UTC-08, except I'm UTC-05. Never really cared, but thought that it'd be worth fixing now lol

Though, when I try to change it, the option is kinda greyed out: https://prnt.sc/5zqkt9pPZzub
I saw that you needed to be an admin to do it, and I am:

I know I can set it manually, but I'm pretty sure that I once tried that, and it just reset whenever I rebooted my pc.

Have tried repairing files with scannow and
"cleaned the image", according to a thread I've read online

Nevermind, had to set it using tzutil in cmd.
If anyone ever faces this problem:

Open cmd as an admin, run tzutil /l, get the name of the timezone you want (e.g Eastern Standard Time) and then run tzutil /s timezoneName, where timezoneName is a string containing the name ("Eastern Standard Time") so it should look like this:

tzutil /s "Eastern Standard Time"
