If you’re on windows you can set a timezone variable in a command prompt that will affect anything the uses the c runtime.
If you launch wireshark from that command prompt the times will show up as you want.
EG
set TZ=GMT10
set TZ=GMT-5
hope that helps

Subject: [Wireshark-users] Time Display issues opening traces
Hi All,
I wanted to know if there was any way to prevent Wireshark from displaying the trace time in local time but the actual time the trace was taken. This makes analyzing traces from different time zones a complete pain. If I have logs from somebody that are in their time zone but the trace is in mine it makes it a LOT harder to find things since I have to mentally compensate for this time zone change.
Any help / info would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Chris
