Dos command to find out your login time and install date of windows

During my initial days of computing i usually install a fresh copy of windows each time i got some kind of error like if my folder options is not working because of any virus activity,or some kind of booting problem.But after becoming a Tech blogger and computer engineering student now i emphasize on solving the problem rather than installing a fresh copy of windows.

It has been a long time since i installed a fresh windows.Today i tried to find out the last time of my windows installation.For finding this i goggled my query and i found out a dos command which is very useful for finding system information.

Go to Run-->Cmd and then type systeminfo | find /i “install date” to know the date when your installed Windows on the PC. (see image)


and if you want to find out last time when you booted your windows xp PC then go to cmd and type systeminfo | find /i “boot time” .This will show the time when you last rebooted the computer.

Alternative, you could start Windows Task Manager (Alt+Ctrl+Del), switch to the Performance tab and you should see a field that says “Up Time” that’s even more convenient but some computers have Task managers disabled.

Extra tip:If you would simply type "systeminfo" without quotes in cmd,then you will lot of information about your system.Filter it your self.

Hi,

Thanks for keeping this useful information posted on your website, i visit this page every once in a while to tell people when their machines were last remastered, or when the factory install took place.
