My pc dual boots Ubuntu 20.04 and Windows 10. The windows clock has a
setting that says 'set time automatically'. It seems to set the windows
clock to the value of the 'system time' in the BIOS.
Ubuntu clock setting. Ubuntu apparently looks on the internet and
determines GMT and sets ubuntu clock based on that and the time zone set
in ubuntu settings. At the same time ubuntu also sets the BIOS system
time to the value of GMT it determined from the internet.
If I boot ubuntu and then boot windows the windows clock displays GMT.
So I have to set the windows clock.
QUESTION: is there any way to get windows to actually set the time
automatically, like implied by the setting that says: 'set time
automatically' ? Or can it only set the windows clock to the BIOS time?
QUESTION: Is there any way to prevent ubuntu from setting the BIOS
system time?
TIA. Bill S.
