It's part of the "Certified for Windows XXX" for each OS version  I believe.

Here is an MSDN blog post that seems to clarify this particular case a

It seems NTP config files should go into %ALLUSERSPROFILE% or into the
service account's local application settings directories.

I imagine it is also documented in the Platform SDK as well, although
I have never dug deep into that.
