Why am I seeing Philippines as my default timezone, when it's set to US?

Why does my time zone default to the Philippines manila when auto is turned off even though I set it to USA eastern?

Dropbox.com in settings, in general, scroll down to auto time zone & switch off, mine defaults back to Philippines

the site for file & media sharing.

Hey bikeman5. Can you send us a screenshot of what you see on your end? If there’s any sort of personal info showing, please mask it first.

      Hey bikeman5 - thanks for the screenshot!

      Can you clear your browser's cache and/or try another browser (or an incognito window) and let us know if you notice any difference when adjusting your account's timezone?
