No Virus is detected . and the .bat file doesnt seem suspicious

Interesting thing if you have Ubuntu and Windows 7 on the same machine with dual boot then they show two different times although they are both on GMT/UTC+1. Usually Windows change his time to the Ubuntu's false time, and after a few days later it sync over internet with an NTP server which is correct.

its because windows save the real time (depending on your GMT+- setting) but linux save the GMT time no matter what time zone youre at . it doesnt matter if you live in GMT location but if you live in GMT+ or GMT- it will screw it . but luckily @NukerHD make a program that will sync the date with the internet so it is not really a problem

for example you have a GMT+7 time and the time is 7:09 . when you boot to linux . linux think that is a GMT time because linux save GMT time to the CMOS and move the time ahead so when you boot to linux you get 14:09 . and you correct that on linux and boot back to windows your time will be 00:09 because windows think that 00:09 is the GMT+7 time not the GMT0 time

It clean file, "simple" .bat program. You can also check sourcecode if you want to be sure.

Why was this needed? Cant you do the same directly form windows?


RE: How to fix your Windows Time - Dudi - 06-28-2017

I found a better solution.
We have to force Linux to use 'Local' time.
Simply enter this command:
timedatectl set-local-rtc 1

Because although Windows has an automatic time synchronization feature to keep your computer’s clock accurate, unfortunately it is scheduled to only run once a week by default. If your Windows does not need run any time-sensitive job, it may not be a real problem. Otherwise, you will run into headache.

You may start the Windows time service on each boot by creating a scheduled task. Windows 10 actually does this automatically and will start the time service during boot. However, even if you do so, Windows 10 will actually sync the time on boot only if your system clock is off by more than a few hours. That is why there are some free tools, such as Dimension 4 or Neutron, that can help people to fix this problem properly.
