Manually change the timezone on windows 7 in one or two steps

I need to change the timezone from CST(UTC-6) to IST and back to CST approx every hour. It is 6 steps work but having to do it every hour makes me tired. Can I make it simple like in one click?

Thanks a lot. This worked!! "tzutil /l" in command prompt gives the list of all the standard names. – R27 – 2014-01-15T06:00:15.197

1I am really wondering why do you need to change the time zone approximately every hour. There could be a much better solution than doing this. – pabouk – 2014-01-15T07:39:26.153

Use

tzutil /l

to list all timezones.
Then create batch files to set timezones.
Example:

TZUTIL /s "Central Standard Time"

Then bind these batch files to hotkey using something like Autohotkey.
