I need to configure a specific timezone and 24-hour time format on managed Windows devices through Hexnode. Is there a built-in Windows policy option for this, or should it be done with a script? I found the custom script option but want to confirm the right approach before pushing it to devices.

This can be configured on Windows devices using Hexnode’s Execute Custom Script action with PowerShell.
For the timezone requirement, prepare a PowerShell script that sets the required Windows timezone ID, then deploy it to the target Windows devices using the Execute Custom Script action. Hexnode also provides a reference script for setting the timezone on Windows devices here:
For the 24-hour time format, include the required Windows regional/time-format configuration in the same PowerShell script or deploy it as a separate script. Once the script is ready, run it on a test device first, verify that the timezone and time format are applied correctly, and then execute it on the intended device group.
