<title>Windows instances require the timezone to be "localtime"</title>
<para>When uploading Windows images, you must set the <literal>os_type</literal>
parameter to <literal>windows</literal>, which causes instances to use the
local time zone.
Failing to set this will cause the clock timezone to be UTC, which has unexpected
side effects in Windows.</para>
