How do I set up Windows 10 to be in the correct timezone for Tunis, Tunisia?
If I go to Settings, Time & Language, Date & Time, I can choose a timezone, but Tunis is not in the list. Why not? Other operating systems get this right. How do I fix this?
(I don't want to set the timezone to another one with a similar time offset, because I want the time to be adjusted automatically with daylight saving correctly.)

The correct time zone for Tunisia in Windows is labeled as (UTC+01:00) West Central Africa.
You can either manually set your time zone like this:
Or, you can turn on "Set time zone automatically" - which in most cases will correctly identify your time zone.
The reason it doesn't have a separate entry is because Tunisia does not have daylight saving time, and there are multiple other African countries that also use this time zone. It is not distinct enough, in terms of UTC offset and recent transition history, to warrant its own time zone entry.
