So, you GENERATED the URL.
You used the complicated format of the date/time string given to you by default, and hard to test manually.
As opposed to formatting the date in Javascript to be: YYYYMMDD_HHNNSS and simply parsing that on the other end?
Try to make your code immutable to the version of windows, etc.

Yes, I said I was being lazy. Yes, I know I did it a foolish way. The ONLY point of my post in Weird and Wonderful was to highlight a weird and wonderful (and undocumented, it would seem) change in the Time Zone description by Microsoft from "Daylight Time" to "Summer Time" with Win8 (and, it would seem, back to "Daylight Time" in Win10).

I get the point of the post. But I want to make sure YOU and even OTHERS realize that the solution is to really work to insulate yourself from these things from the jump.
In fact, I just "auto saved" a file in my program, and I forced the YYYYMMDD_HHNNSS format to the prefix, so it is sortable, and gives a clue as to when it was made, how old, etc.

Why are you screwing around with strings?
In Javascript "Date.now()" returns the number of milliseconds since 1/1/1970 (GMT). Pass that number in the URL.
On the server-side:
new DateTime(1970,1,1) + new TimeSpan(now * 1000)
Give you the date/time.

Ah! Many happy memories of hair tearing and cat kicking. So many variables and none of them nice.
My best suggestion is to convert all dates into standard strings using the inbuilt date formatting functions. Whatever you do, don't pass dates as date objects. You will regret it...

Ha ha! The issue was nothing to do with Javascript, rather Microsoft's random renaming of time zones.

There is a standard date/time format when interchanging information between different applications:
ISO 8601
string data = "2017-04-14T01:27:00+02";
DateTime dt = DateTime.Parse(data);

What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?
The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.
Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

True but it has so little traction that who cares?

Typing on an IPad leaves much to be desired, and many typos.

A typo defines integrity for you, how sad.

Funny that they're reduced from $49.95 to $19.95. I wail until they drop below $2 and then snag some.
I'm gonna build a wall around my cubical and make Mexico pay for it!

I wonder about the people who pay $20 for a $2 bill. They aren't that rare.
Bill Clinton has already reserved the $3 bill. It was supposed to go to Hillary, but all did not go to plan....

At times I really want a simple desktop wallpaper which says something related to a programming language like maybe something out of Zen of Python.
Here's a bunch of programming wallpapers I made using my very limited design skills  Technology Wallpapers

"Real" developers know that desktop wallpapers hog resources and slow down the system; so we don't use them. ![Badger | [badger,badger,badger,badger...]](https://www.codeproject.com/script/Forums/Images/badger.gif)

Yeah, if you are using a computer made back in the 1700's!
Pro tip - buy a new computer. 
|
|
|
|

New computers hog resources as well, way more than those from 1970 did!

Sander, were talking about wallpaper here...wallpaper. Get a new computer if your computer can't handle wallpaper.

I tried putting wallpaper on my monitor, but I couldn't see the screen anymore!
