Are you ready for the correct answer? ;)
For at least the past dozen years, maybe more, Windows does not
actually require that. There is a semi-documented registry flag
for it to keep the HWclock in UTC and convert to local time as
needed. Quoting from a blog post I copied long ago (alas, got
no origin reference):

The registry tweak that will tell Windows to interpret the hardware
clock as UTC time:




Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\TimeZoneInformation]
"RealTimeIsUniversal"=dword:00000001


Hmm, interesting. Thanks Jim
