Independent clock possible?

[telmob]

Hello.

I'm doing a project that needs to alter the system time and date to a previous or later value and then to revert ir again to the correct time and date.

I've seen here on the forums a way to do this:

#include <Date.au3>

$tCur = _Date_Time_GetSystemTime()
$Date = "01.01.2010"
Run(@ComSpec & " /c " & "date " & $Date, "", @SW_HIDE)
 Sleep(2000)
_Date_Time_SetSystemTime(DllStructGetPtr($tCur))

But if i increase the delay on sleep to 10 seconds, the time will be late ten seconds.

Is there a way to change the time back to the correct actual time without the use of the internet?

Thanks!

Perhaps you can use _NowCalc, TimerInit and TimerDiff to create a value of a point in time, calculate how long your script has been running, and finally go back to the original time and add the difference back to it.

Thanks! That makes sense, but i'm such a noob i'll probably drown in all that info

I'll try to figure it out. The help file usually helps...

Thanks again sleepydvdr
