Allowing mac users to change their timezone

Hi All,

Because Location services are not allowed for macs (i think): Sometimes macs don't get the correct timezone. 

I had created a plist as below and successful updated the policy to the target device.

But when check on the device, the profile not installed, tried force sync from Intune, re sign in to company portal but still the same.

Could you please help how to fix it.

   <true/>\

</plist>\

}

Thanks and regards
