   But why do you create all these batch files? Just do all in a single one:   
      
   @echo off   
   setlocal enabledelayedexpansion   
      
   :loop   
   set /a n=137*%random%/32768*3+1   
   for /f "tokens=*" %%i in ('tzutil /l^|more +%n%') do set a=%%i& goto :l1   
   :l1   
   echo.   
   echo.   
   echo setting time zone to: %a%   
   tzutil.exe /s "%a%"   
      
   :: wait 6-24h   
   set /a n=20864+(%random%*2)   
   set /a h=%n%/3600   
   set /a m=(n-(%h%*3600))/60   
   echo waiting %h% hours, %m% minutes   
   timeout %n%   
   goto :loop
