you did not set Windows to auto adjust for daylight saving time This is nothing whatsoever to do with it.
The behaviour is: Where a Windows OS is present, during install the section where you set UTC or not usually would have UTC unchecked (That is it understands that Windows is present). In 12.2 it doesn't, the UTC is checked. If you uncheck it, it warns you that you do not have Windows installed and are you sure...? blah blah... If you configure with UTC unchecked, post install you will find the installer has re-applied UTC and check is back. If you use Yast to configure NTP to manage time and uncheck UTC, it gives the same warning about not having Windows.
This behaviour is all wrong and different to previous versions 12.1 11.4 etc....
This post is also addressed to Carlos..... Let me put it this way re what I said earlier. In the past I always installed Windows (XP) and always set it to auto adjust for daylight saving time. I would then install openSUSE and found that the UTC box in the Locale setting was UNCHECKED. Earlier this week, I reformatted my HDDs, and installed XP on the second HDD - but this time I deliberately did not configure XP to auto adjust for daylight saving time. I then did a new, clean, install of 12.2 Gold (well, actually Build #167 which was then made Gold). The Locale menu had UTC TICKED. Perhaps this was accidental, perhaps not or my memory is totally shot; but I don't intend to repeat the exercise to prove which it was :-) .
