Win32_TimeZone
The Win32_TimeZone class represents the time zone information for a Win32 system. This includes changes needed for the transition to and from daylight savings time.

PROPERTYSMS_REPORTCIMTYPEDESCRIPTION
BiasSInt32The Bias property specifies the current bias for local time translation. The bias is the difference between Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) and local time. All translations between UTC and local time are based on the following formula: UTC = local time + bias. This member is required.
CaptionStringA short textual description (one-line string) of the CIM_Setting object.
DaylightBiasSInt32The DaylightBias property specifies a bias value to be used during local time translations that occur during daylight time. This member is ignored if a value for the DaylightDay member is not supplied. The value of this member is added to the Bias member to form the bias used during daylight time. In most time zones, the value of this member is -60.
DaylightDayUInt32The DaylightDay property specifies the day of the DaylightMonth when the transition from standard time to daylight savings time occurs on this operating system. Example: 15 The property specifies a SYSTEMTIME structure that contains a date and local time when the transition from standard time to daylight time occurs on this operating system. If this date is not specified, the wMonth member in the SYSTEMTIME structure must be zero. If this date is specified, the StandardDate value in the TIME_ZONE_INFORMATION structure must also be specified. This member supports the absolute and day-in-month time formats described for the StandardDate member.
DaylightDayOfWeekUInt8The DaylightDayOfWeek property specifies the day of the week when the transition from standard time to daylight savings time occurs on this operating system. Example: 1
DaylightHourUInt32The DaylightHour property specifies the hour of the day when the transition from standard time to daylight savings time occurs on this operating system. Example: 2
DaylightMillisecondUInt32The DaylightMillisecond property specifies the millisecond of the DaylightSecond when the transition from standard time to daylight savings time occurs on this operating system.
DaylightMinuteUInt32The DaylightMinute property specifies the minute of the DaylightHour when the transition from standard time to daylight savings time occurs on this operating system. Example: 59
DaylightMonthUInt32The DaylightMonth property specifies the month when the transition from standard time to daylight savings time occurs on this operating system. Example: 1 = January
DaylightNameStringThe DaylightName property indicates the name of the time zone being represented when daylight savings time is in effect. Example: EDT = Eastern Daylight Time.
DaylightSecondUInt32The DaylightSecond property specifies the second of of the DaylightMinute when the transition from standard time to daylight savings time occurs on this operating system. Example: 59
DaylightYearUInt32The DaylightYear property indicates the year when daylight saving time is in effect. This member is not required. Example: 1997
DescriptionStringA textual description of the CIM_Setting object.
SettingIDStringThe identifier by which the CIM_Setting object is known.
StandardBiasUInt32The StandardBias property specifies a bias value to be used when daylight savings time is not in effect. This member is ignored if a value for the StandardDay member is not supplied. The value of this member is added to the Bias member to form the bias during standard time. Example: 0
StandardDayUInt32The StandardDay property specifies the day of the StandardMonth when the transition from daylight savings time to standard time occurs on this operating system. Example: 31 The property specifies a SYSTEMTIME structure that contains a date and local time when the transition from daylight time to standard time occurs on this operating system. If this date is not specified, the wMonth member in the SYSTEMTIME structure must be zero. If this date is specified, the DaylightDate value in the TIME_ZONE_INFORMATION structure must also be specified. This member supports two date formats. Absolute format specifies an exact date and time when standard time begins. In this form, the wYear, wMonth, wDay, wHour, wMinute, wSecond, and wMilliseconds members of the SYSTEMTIME structure are used to specify an exact date. Day-in-month format is specified by setting the wYear member to zero, setting the wDayOfWeek member to an appropriate weekday, and using a wDay value in the range 1 through 5 to select the correct day in the month. Using this notation, the first Sunday in April can be specified, as can the last Thursday in October (5 is equal to "the last").
StandardDayOfWeekUInt8The StandardDayOfWeek property specifies the day of the week when the transition from daylight savings time to standard time occurs on this operating system. Example: 1
StandardHourUInt32The StandardHour property specifies the hour of the day when the transition from daylight savings time to standard time occurs on this operating system. Example: 11
StandardMillisecondUInt32The StandardMillisecond property specifies the millisecond of the StandardSecond when the transition from daylight savings time to standard time occurs on this operating system.
StandardMinuteUInt32The StandardMinute property specifies the minute of the StandardDay when the transition from daylight savings time to standard time occurs on this operating system. Example: 59
StandardMonthUInt32The StandardMonth property specifies the month when the transition from daylight savings time to standard time occurs on this operating system. Example: 12
StandardNameStringThe StandardName property indicates the name of the time zone being represented when standard time is in effect. Example: EST = Eastern Standard Time.
StandardSecondUInt32The StandardSecond property specifies the second of the StandardMinute when the transition from daylight savings time to standard time occurs on this operating system. Example: 59
StandardYearUInt32The StandardYear property indicates the year when standard time is in effect. This member is not required. Example: 1997
