![]() ![]() You see I am in Kolkata time zone which is UTC+5:30. On the other hand, Windows thinks that the time stored on the hardware clock is local time. If your operating system makes any changes to system clock, like changing time zone etc, it tries to sync this information to the hardware clock.īy default, Linux assumes that the time stored in the hardware clock is in UTC, not the local time. Afterwards, the system clock is used for tracking time. When your computer is powered on, the hardware clock is read and used to set the system clock. The system clock is what you see inside your operating system. It keeps on running even after your system is powered off. This clock is outside the operating system, on your computer’s motherboard. Why Windows and Linux show different time in dual boot?Ī computer has two main clocks: a system clock and a hardware clock.Ī hardware clock which is also called RTC ( real time clock) or CMOS/BIOS clock. But before that, let me tell you why you encounter a time difference in a dual boot setup. I’ll explain in detail how the above command fixes the wrong time issue in Windows after dual boot. You can fix it by using the following command in the Linux terminal: timedatectl set-local-rtc 1Īgain, don’t worry. That’s strange specially because you are connected to the internet and your date and time is set to be used automatically.ĭon’t worry! You are not the only one to face this issue.
