Re: Django has incorrect time

Try changing time zones in your settings.py

For example:

TIME_ZONE = 'America/Los_Angeles'

And make sure if you're running on Windows it matches your system's
time zone. Regardless, you should see some kind of change when you do
this. If you don't perhaps the settings.py isn't loading properly.
