Script /batch file to correct date in windows 7

[Moise]

Hi, the netbooks at our college are loosing the correct time and date after the batteries are empty.I am trying to get the right time/date without replacing the CMOS battery. I am trying to find a script to run on the admin side and correct the time and date the same format as in windows 7 ie. dd/mm/yyyy.

 

Many thanks.

Just an idea, but you could try make a script to sync with the time server and set it as a GPO to be ran on the computer startup? If not you can always do it at user logon

iirc you need to be an admin to alter the clock so it would need to be a startup/shutdown script

 

something like

 

net time \\server /set /y

 

should do it

Thank you very much to NB9457 and Sted for your help, i haven't got around to test net time yet, but i will as soon as i the chance.
