    2 Hours offset in OS clock.


    Hi,
    Windows's clock is always offsetted of 2 hours back in time, but the time zone is correct (GMT +1).
    Auto time set is enabled, disabling / reenabling it doesn't do anything (it actually gets stuck reenabling it, but if i close and reopen the settings app it enables the setting).
    If i manually set the time and then reenable the auto time set, the time is displayed correctly until the next restart.

    I run Ubuntu as my main OS and the time is displayed correctly with the same time zone.

    Thanks,

    Have you set time either on Linux only or Windows only so they don't conflict ? See this article if it helps:

    Thanks for replying,

    I'm pretty sure that can't be the reason, both operating systems are automatically setting the date and time, but anyways tried both of these and it didn't work.
    Also, restarting without booting Ubuntu offsets the clock back anyways after manually setting the time.

    Actually it is a known issue with Linux telling the bios to set for UTC time. Follow the info in the link.

    AS we are stating, it is a known issue with Linux changing the clock to UTC. It has to be done in Linux and also make sure that you double check the clock settings in Windows. Do not make the changes in Windows, or the fix does not work. Only make the change in Linux for LocalDateTime. Also go into the Bios and check the clock settings in there. As for Windows, double check to see what Time Server is being used and the clock is set to the correct Time Zone.

    Again this is a known issue that can be fixed in Linux in the CLI as stated. You have to not make the UTC changes in the registry in Windows, check the bios clock before and after the fix in Linux, to make sure that it is correct. This also means making sure your time server is correct in Windows along with time zone. If you are Dual booting in and out of Linux and Windows without the fix, you will always get UTC and will have to live with it, if you do not want to make the changes. See this on further info on the UTC fix. How to Fix Time Differences in Ubuntu 16.04 & Windows 10 Dual Boot | UbuntuHandbook https://www.howtogeek.com/323390/how...-dual-booting/

    Asking somewhere else, will only get you the same answers that have already been suggested here.

    Personally I leave Linux alone and change Windows.

    Code:
    reg add "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\TimeZoneInformation" /v RealTimeIsUniversal /d 1 /t REG_DWORD /f
    It is generally easier (for various reasons, but mainly how Linux kernel treats time when loading modules) to change Windows - see here : Time - ArchWiki

    You do need to change one or the other though.

    I don't see why you should think anyone should try doing both changes at the same time when it's clearly written that you need to do either one or the other one.

    I'd be happy if the thread gets removed, i already pictured this isn't going anywhere.
    Again, sorry for bothering you.
