CrossOver Support - Community Forums

Hi,

I want to change simply the clock time in one Windows-bottle.
How can I do this?

Thanks a lot 😊

Maybe you should open a support ticket for this to get a confirmation from the staff, but I don't think there is any way to change the time for a specific bottle. From my understanding, the bottle is entirely dependant of the system clock.

Crossover is not virtualization, where there is an entirely independant OS running in a virtual machine. It is a way for the underlying OS (be it Mac or Linux) to know what to do with Windows instructions. Therefore, whatever your OS has is what Crossover has, including the time of day.

Of course, you could change the time set for your computer while you're using that bottle, but I'll admit that isn't very practical.

Now I might be wrong, so think of opening a ticket for this one.

No, it's true: there is no independent clock.

yeah, I even looked in the bottle's config files, just to make sure.

It was a good question, although not many users would need that.
