Question

I want to use the TimeZoneInfo.FindSystemTimeZoneById(String) method, but I don\'t know what values to use as the input?

Where can I get a list of values for i

Answer 1

To get the most current list of time zones, use tzutil from Windows:

tzutil /l

Here you can find the official Time Zone Ids list from Microsoft in MSDN: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/manufacture/desktop/default-time-zones
