Reminded me how Windows would set the hardware clock to different timezone that Linux uses, can't remember which.

It would make my blood boil, that's when I decided to never boot it again. 100% Linux everywhere, I get it on routers when I can.

Windows sets the hardware clock to local time, Linux sets it to UTC. It's possible to tell one to respect the others preference

I will never expect Windows to respect any preference. Updates burnt me too many times.

Linux for life.

Linux for life.

Then you're clearly not dual booting and this advice wasn't for you

Not anymore I'm not, you are correct.

Also wrote that earlier.

So that's why windows always has the wrong time after I've been in my Linux install...

It should change it back eventually if you didn't disable setting the clock from Microsofts ntp servers
