Yes, as I understand it Microsoft Windows 8.1 and later has data derived
from tzdb in its Windows Runtime / Universal Windows Platform classes.
There's also Windows Subsystem for Linux, which is shipped by Microsoft
and is a virtualized Ubuntu with its own copy of tzdb, though I doubt
whether WSL is relevant here.
