    Hi Marble,

    I've worked around this by changing the TimeZoneService.cs

        public List<NameValueDto> GetWindowsTimezones()
        {
            return TZConvert.KnownWindowsTimeZoneIds
                .Where(tz =>TZConvert.TryGetTimeZoneInfo(tz, out var notUsed))
                .OrderBy(tz => TZConvert.GetTimeZoneInfo(tz).BaseUtcOffset)
                .Select(tz => new NameValueDto
                {
                    Value = tz,
                    Name = TZNames.GetDisplayNameForTimeZone(tz, "en-US")
                }).ToList();
        }
        
        I used a nuget package https://github.com/mj1856/TimeZoneNames to make this work.
        
        It works acceptably for me.  It's not perfect however.
