Artikel Terbaru How to get the most accurate Windows Install Date (time zone adjusted) Update Terlengkap 2017

There have been many attempts to get the correct Windows Install Date but 99% of the solutions I have seen are technically the wrong date. It was driving me bonkers.


Most Common Solutions for getting Windows Install Date are All Wrong


Here are most common way to find Windows Install Date;

1. Most popular way, using following command line

  1  
  systeminfo.exe | find /i "Original Install Date"   

    filtering for Original Install Date outputs the wrong date.


2. The following Powershell is a common solution; checking WMI Win32_Registry class[1] for InstallDate but outputs the wrong date.

  1  2  
  (Get-WmiObject Win32_Registry).InstallDate  ([WMI]'').ConvertToDateTime((Get-WmiObject Win32_Registry).InstallDate)  

3. The following Powershell is a common solution, checking the WMI Win32_OperatingSystem[2] class for InstallDate outputs the wrong date.


  1  2  
  (Get-WmiObject Win32_OperatingSystem).InstallDate  ([WMI]'').ConvertToDateTime((Get-WmiObject Win32_OperatingSystem).InstallDate)  


4. The following Powershell is common solution checking the Windows Registry key
    HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\InstallDate



  1  2  
   [TimeZone]::CurrentTimeZone.ToLocalTime([DateTime]'1.1.1970').AddSeconds(   (Get-ItemProperty 'HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion').InstallDate )  

or using the C# equivalent snippet


   1   2   3   4   5   6   7   8   9  10  11  12  
  var key = Microsoft.Win32.RegistryKey.OpenBaseKey(RegistryHive.LocalMachine, RegistryView.Registry64);    key = key.OpenSubKey(@"SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion", false);  if (key != null)  {      DateTime startDate = new DateTime(1970, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0);      object objValue = key.GetValue("InstallDate");      string stringValue = objValue.ToString();      Int64 regVal = Convert.ToInt64(stringValue);        DateTime installDate = startDate.AddSeconds(regVal);  }  

will always output the wrong date, even in the C# snippet. 



Reason why these will not work;


1  systeminfo.exe uses UNIX timestamp will always be wrong.

2. ConvertToDateTime is not converting the datetime datatype correctly, timezone info is lost.
3. Ditto.
4. HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\InstallDate contains a UNIX timestamp and will always be wrong.



Explanation


Now let me explain; 

The definition of a UNIX timestamp[3] is time zone independent. The UNIX timestamp is defined as the number of seconds that have elapsed since 00:00:00 Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), Thursday, 1 January 1970 and not counting leap seconds.

In other words, if you have installed you computer in Seattle, WA and moved to New York,NY the HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\InstallDate will give you the date in NY time zone, not in Seattle time zone where Windows was original installed. It's the wrong date, it doesn't store time zone info where the computer was initially installed. 

So what you really want is a data type that can accurately capture the time and date + time zone. This is where UTC Format[4] (UTC±HH:MM) comes in, it carries time zone information. The Microsoft(MS) engineers then optimized this for storage and came up with their own UTC format (yyyymmddHHMMSS.xxxxxx±UUU), striping hours, expanding minutes to be 4 digits with sign. This fits ±720 minutes (± 12 hrs or equivalent of 24hrs/time zones). 

Fun Fact: Earth rotates at 15 degrees of longitude per hour. Each time zone[5] is 15 degrees wide or 1669.79km (1,040 miles) if perfectly divided. In 1 minute, earth rotates 28km (17.4 miles). At 89.8 degrees latitude it would be an easy walking speed of 6.4 km (4 mph) to match earths rotation, but you have to be 22.53km (14 miles) away from the North/South pole.

In the MS UTC format, dates are displayed as yyyymmddHHMMSS.xxxxxx+/-UUU, where:

  • yyyy represents t he year.
  • mm represents the month.
  • dd represents the day.
  • HH represents the hour (in 24-hour format).
  • MM represents the minutes.
  • SS represents the seconds.
  • xxxxxx represents the milliseconds.
  • ± represents positive or negative time zone (TMZ) offset
  • UUU represents the time zone (TMZ) offset, the difference, in minutes, between the local time zone and Greenwich Mean Time (GMT).

as per Microsoft TechNet article titled "Working with Dates and Times using WMI[6]". 

Example Microsoft UTC Format values look like  

  1  2  3  4  5  6  
  20100216010920.000000-300   20110106073639.000000+480   
  xxxxxxxxxxxxxx.000000+xxx --- general search patterns below for search engines ----  xxxxxxxxxxxxxx.000000-xxx   ##############.000000+###  ##############.000000-###  

So where is UTC Format stored for Windows Install Date?


Luckily, we can get timezone information from Installdate located in the WMI Win32_Registry class.

Sidenote: When you try to list all the software on you computer using the Win32_Product class[8]  there a InstallDate which contains yyyymmdd and InstallDate2 which should contain a MS UTC Format, but warning this was not a required field for vendors and usually empty.

SOLUTION

Finally the solution, how to get an accurate timezone adjusted Windows Install Date in C#. Powershell is below this.
