I want to programatically uncheck the “automatically adjust the clock for daylight savings” check box from a compact framework application running in WinCE.
Google searches indicate that you can do this in Windows by setting the DisableAutoDaylightTimeSet value under the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\TimeZoneInformation key. This key doesn’t appear to exist in WinCE. Is there a different way to do this in WinCE?
The best answer I can find on this is to use the “HomeDST” registry key:

There is an “AUTODst” registry key also which seems to automatically adjust, but that appears to depend on SNTP. If anyone knows a way to automatically adjust for DST in WinCE without using SNTP please comment.
