How to find Windows uptime?

Answer 1

Use the 'systeminfo' command in the Command Prompt. * In Windows XP, the command's output will have an item called 'System Up Time' with the number of hours that the system has been up and running. This is the uptime. * In Windows Vista, the output will have an item called 'System Boot Time' showing the time that the system was last booted. To get the uptime, substract this value from your current time. This is a sample output taken on Windows XP:
