Batch file that sync your system time and date

Question

I'm trying to write a batch file that checks the system time and date. I would like it to check over the internet. I have this part. But thinking it should do the date part. But it only does the time if the date is correct

@echo off
w32tm /query /peers 
net stop w32time
net start w32time
w32tm /resync /nowait
EOF

I do run the batch file as a administrator. Can someone help me with the date part of this. Thank you for taking the time to read this post. Any info would be a get help. Thank you

Answer 1

You have the NET TIME statement, but surely you don't have XP or a Lower OS, so that statement is already deprecated. For higher versions, therefore, using W32TM is a time management service that also serves to diagnose system problems.

How to synchronize the time and date from CMD?

1. Run a console as Administrator.

2. Start the service: net start w32time

3. Check its status: w32tm /query /peers

4. Synchronize the time and date: w32tm /resync /nowait

You can also change the specific time and date of a computer on the network with: net time \\DOMAIN /set

With this, you can now create the Batch script you need.

On the other hand, for more information, I share the source: https://learn.microsoft.com/.../windows.../ff799054(v=ws.11)
