Bug ID: 442309
Summary: KDE neon (Live from USB) changes clock under Windows
10
Product: neon
Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS: Microsoft Windows
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Live/Install images
Assignee: [email protected]

Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
I have a Laptop with Windows 10 as it's main OS. Sometimes I use KDE neon as a
live system for a USB stick for testing. When I boot KDE neon, restart and boot
back into Windows 10 the system clock is changed.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Windows 10 as you main OS
2. Run KDE neon from a USB stick (and ?do nothing? -> see "ADDITIONAL
INFORMATION")
3. Boot back into Windows 10 and see the clock changed
OBSERVED RESULT
The clock is changed by -2 hours. I guess this is because I live in a +2 hours
timezone and KDE neon resets it to +0.
It's easy to fix on Windows 10: Open the time settings and toggle the setting
to automatically get the time off and back on.
EXPECTED RESULT
KDE neon should not change the settings - especially as live system from a USB
stick
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: Windows 10 Home (Version 20H2; build 19042.1165)
Linux/KDE Plasma: Will be checked the next time I use the live system (I used
neon-user-20210902-0945)
KDE Plasma Version: per above
KDE Frameworks Version: per above
Qt Version: per above
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Own Laptop: MSI Bravo 17
This *might* be related to KDE neon connecting to the internet. So when KDE
neon is connected to the internet it changes the time setting, if it isn't it
does not. I need to retest this though.
I tested this bug on a company laptop and there it did not change the time.
HOWEVER: That PC had a locked BIOS/UEFI and the Win 10 system was encrypted (So
I would have been surprised very much if KDE neon managed to change the time
setting over there)
A though: Would KDE neon change the date as well on New Years Eve when I'm
already in the next year, but +0 is not?
