Time Service Configuration

Updated: November 25, 2009

Applies To: Windows Server 2008 R2

The Windows Time service loads configuration settings from the registry. Windows Time Service uses Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), which is based on an atomic time scale and is therefore independent of time zone. Time zone information is stored in the computer's registry and is added to the system time just before it is displayed to the user.
