How to change windows installasion date

Hi,

Is there any way/script to change the date when windows is installed??

Why would you want to do that?, You can't really change the install date, as the install date is the date when you actually installed the operating system. The only way you can change the date is to reinstall the operating system. You can change your date and clock settings in the bios then reinstall the operating system using those settings. I doubt if you can change it in any other way.

The installed date is stored in the registry at: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion
InstallDate is a DWORD key that stores the date in binary format.

Following an objection by rlandquist, at least one Moderator has reviewed this question and has decided that the question was not closed properly. Code supplied by the Expert was used in the final solution (with a minor typographical error fixed) and as such points should have been awarded for that solution.

As such, I'm re-opening this question and accepting the Author's final comment, along with an assist with full points for the comment by rlandquist.
