This section is erroring out in packer build
Error details
Set-TimeZone : The term ‘Set-TimeZone’ is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function , script file, or operable program
The build section of my *.pkr.hcl is shown below - does this command need any elevated priveleges that I am supposed to set ?
build {
