Hi TM_Linda. No, that topic is not relevant. It's about the blocking not being effective. In my case, the blocking works acceptably well - but the schedule timing seems to mess itself up randomly.

Completely different issue.

Perhaps a TM engineer who understands how the product works could determine what mechanisms could possibly cause the access schedule to be active and inactive at completely the wrong times. E.g. could it be suddenly running itself off a different time zone? Perhaps there's a code snippet or function where a developer has inadvertently referred to UTC or US E.S.T. instead of local clock time? I note a review from a few years ago criticized TM for allowing the schedule to be easily circumvented simply by changing the computer clock... clearly, that issue has since been patched; could the patch be causing my issue?

I would appreciate a helpful reply based on facts about the product, if at all possible.

Thanks in advance.
