The hardware sync function relies on a systemd timer according to the vendor data code so it's not applicable to Windows: https://git.launchpad.net/maas/tree/src/metadataserver/vendor_data.py?id=95c09efafc46cfd755f90bc51ab76965afe4c1c8

However, WebUI doesn't gray out the option when provisioning an Windows image although VM host provisioning option is appropriately grayed out. Please see the screenshot attached.
