Default I have an error in JD end time column, How to update timezone database

On the downloads tab in JD, you can choose the columns that you want it to show: Name, Size, Server, Status, Progress, etc.

One of the tabs is the end time, but in my particular case it shows +1 hour. For example, if I finish a download at 8:23 am, it says 9:23 am instead.

I believe this has to do with the fact that we had "Daylight Saving Time" for 26 years, but it was removed in our country months ago, so this April 2nd we no longer had to forward time 1 hour.

Some smartphones with automatic time confused people in my country because they still forwarded 1 hour, while some other phones and windows knew that they no longer had to do that.

Note: Windows launched an update to fix this, and apparently new time zone were created for some states or regions.

Is there a way I could fix this?

Yes, you are right that it is caused most likely due to changed timezone data.

Yes Java uses own time zone mapping data and therefore must be updated in case time zone changes do affect you.
Can you provide a screenshot of your about dialog, see https://support.jdownloader.org/Know...tion-directory
That way I know which java version your JDownloader is running on, so I can tell you how to update it to newer version that may include updated timezone data.
Where are you from? so I can check java version changelogs which version includes the updated time zone data file.

@HLX: I found this github.com/jeremywall/java-tzdb-builder/tree/main/releases/latest
you can download the .dat file and replace /lib/tzdb.dat file in the bundled Java (java or jre) folder within your JDownloader directory

I attached the screenshot that you requested, in case it still helps. I had Java 8 32 bits up until about 1 week ago. The web downloader installed that version by default on my 64 bit system, but I was the one that reported that it recently became super slow, so I updated to Java 17 64 bits 1 week ago and it's been working properly

Thank you!!! That fixed the issue. You are a genius.

You also asked me where I'm from. I'm from México, close to Texas. Do you think I should also report this somewhere else so it could be fixed for other people or in future releases?

Currently the web downloader just supports 32bit. We're still working on a solution that supports 32/64 bit accordingly to your OS.
For *normal* workload, the 32bit version is just fine though

Thank you for the feedback! Yes, we will look into updating the installer and also maybe work on auto update of the timezone file.
