Change windows time

[tommy13061980]

Hello, I am quitte new with AutoIt.

One thing i just can not solve.

My program needs to set the windows clock to a specific time.

Example:

Script -> Change windows clock to 07:30

I found this: _Date_Time_SetTimeZoneInformation

But it is a little bit difficult for me to understand.

I only need to change the visible clock time in the bottom left corner.

Any help will be appreciated very much.

Many thanks in advance

To set the current local time of your PC use: _Date_Time_SetLocalTime().

In the help file you'll find an example.

Thank you very much Mass Spammer.

And also for so fast answering.

It seems to work perfect on XP.

I still need to test on VISTA.

Hi.

Another way for change windows time :

NOTE: You need administrative privilegies for this operation.

#RequireAdmin
RunWait("cmd.exe /c " & "time 07:30",@ScriptDir,@SW_HIDE)

Hi, Thanx both of you.

But, as i espected, VISTA sais, can not change windows time. User has not the right privileges.

is thwere any way i can get arround that.

Another option is to change the creation date of a file.

But the file has a crc check.

The help file says:

"Function _Date_Time_SetLocalTimeThe SetLocalTime function enables the SE_SYSTEMTIME_NAME privilege before changing the local time."

If you don't have this privilege then there is no way to change the time.
