Wrong time in windows after dual-booting linux?

The problem - you have dual boot setup. All is good, but after booting up windows you always have UTC time, instead of your local time.

I thought about complicated workarounds (e.g. force time check on startup), until stumbled upon article, explaining that by default:

• Windows assume hardware clock has local time
• Linux assume hardware clock has UTC time

So how to fix it? Simple - force Linux to treat system clock as local time:

timedatectl set-local-rtc 1

timedatectl - controls datetime settings

set-local-rtc - accepts bool value. 0 for UTC, 1 for local time.
