I have faced weird error today and I was unable to google anything relevant to the problem - only that I’m not the first one to face this error (i.e. Microsoft Forums )

All my project builds in Visual Studio 2013 failed with “A task was canceled.” error. Even though this error says absolutely nothing, I have tried to rebuild the projects, clean my workspace and rebuild… I have tried to create new solution … nothing. Then I noticed, that my windows time is incorrect.

My timezone was changed by an application and this was the reason why Visual Studio failed to build my projects with “A task was cancelled” error. Clever right?

Hope this will help somebody :)
