Make Windows compatible with UTC

Making Windows use UTC can be useful for dual-boot systems. This can be done by running the following command in the Windows command prompt.

reg add "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\TimeZoneInformation" /v RealTimeIsUniversal /d 1 /t REG_DWORD /f

Disabling of UTC time is done with the same command with a 0 instead of a 1.
