An application must have the SE_TIME_ZONE_NAME privilege for this function to succeed. This privilege is disabled by default. Use the AdjustTokenPrivileges function to enable the privilege before calling SetDynamicTimeZoneInformation, and then to disable the privilege after the SetDynamicTimeZoneInformation call.
