Windows uses UTC internally, not local time. Local time is simply a

That must be new, since windows certainly used to maintain system time
as local time. Caused numberous headaches for people using both Windows
and Linux.
Not new at all. It's been that way since 1992 for the whole of the NT
family. Perhaps you are thinking of what is stored in the real-time clock
chip? Windows and UNIX have different conventions for that, Windows using
wall-clock time.
