For reference sake, in Windows XP Pro SP3 running systeminfo from the cmd prompt gives the following:

Host Name: WS07
OS Name: Microsoft Windows XP Professional
OS Version: 5.1.2600 Service Pack 3 Build 2600
OS Manufacturer: Microsoft Corporation
OS Configuration: Member Workstation
OS Build Type: Multiprocessor Free
Registered Owner: My Company
Registered Organization:
Product ID: XXXXX-OEM-XXXXXXX-XXXXX
Original Install Date: 7/11/2005, 2:11:03 PM
System Up Time: 1 Days, 22 Hours, 0 Minutes, 11 Seconds
etc...etc...

Good luck!

Darn, I would really like to see my system's uptime ): Must be around here somewhere..!

Edit: Just noticed it can be viewed through the 'Performance' tab of the Task Manager. But that is only the up time since the system was turned on, like A_TickCount; (systeminfo seems to display the same on XP) the OP is looking for total time it has been on since it was first installed.

Um...I doubt there is anything in Windows itself that would do that. You could have your script write to the registry as previously suggested every 15 minutes perhaps and update it.

Ie:

Read registry value
Add 15 mins to it
Write registry value

I would use a SetTimer for that and run it every 15/30/60 minutes or so.

Thanks redd

Perhaps try:



The orange might help you debug it better. I would also look at the Ini file to see a) if it is created in the first place b) if the value is in there with the correct section and key name c) if it updates after the IniWrite.

I would definitely add in the #Persistent and the Return after the SetTimer. This is not tested. Good luck.

I would like msgbox to be in hours
Thanks

SetTimer, aa, 60000 ; updates every 1 minute
aa:
IniRead, OutputVar, C:\Temp\myfile.ini, section1, key, 0 ; If no value is found, assume it is 0.
OutputVar++
IniWrite, %OutputVar%, C:\Temp\myfile.ini, section1, key
return

F1::
IniRead, OutputVar, C:\Temp\myfile.ini, section1, key
MsgBox, %OutputVar% mins
Return

simple math converting mins to hours (dividing by 60..)
please try before asking
