- # What's happening
- The operating systems are using the hardware clock in different ways. Linux uses UTC while widows uses localtime (dubious I know). So when you boot the other OS, it's gonna see that the hardware clock is bonkers and update it. Evidently Linux manages to this behind the scenes while windows doesn't.
- # The fix
- Configure windows to use UTC too by setting this registry value to `1`:
- ```registry
- HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\TimeZoneInformation\RealTimeIsUniversal
- ```
