FILETIME Structure

FILETIME-type variables hold a 64-bit value identifying a time and date (usually one associated with a file).

SYSTEMTIME-type variables hold an exact date and time, down to the millisecond. There are two ways this structure stores dates: absolute and relative. Absolute dates (the default, regular format) are "normal" dates, such as January 15, 1998 or December 25, 2001. Relative dates are dates such as "the...

For more information about h...

GetSystemTime

GetSystemTime returns the system's time and date -- in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC, also known as Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) or Zulu time) instead of in the local time zone. This means that the time and date this function gives you probably won't match what the computer's clock tells you. This is...
