[Hermès BÉLUSCA - MAÏTO]

Hi Eric, are you sure this will not break compatibility with WIn2k3 applications? For
example by quickly googling I've noticed some people rely on this Index value for
their Time Zone stuff.


Example:
https://www.experts-exchange.com/questions/24948382/How-to-get-Time-Zone-in…


Also, since
http://microsoft.public.win32.programmer.ui.narkive.com/SOU9r3ef/time-zones…
clearly says that the "IndexMapping" reg_multi_sz is for doing the mapping with
the "Index" values of each time zone, you could have also deleted it! (note that
this mapping value is indeed absent on Windows 7 for example).



Cheers,


Hermès
