Posted October 26, 201410 yr FPCH Admin If you're curious how old your computer is (or when you last did a clean install), this command line utility that can tell you when Windows was installed. The systeminfo command gives you all sorts of details about your computer. If all you want is the date Windows 8 was installed, open a Command Prompt and run: systeminfo | find /i "Original" For Windows 7, run: systeminfo | find /i "install date" The added parameters give you just the original install date. If you've reinstalled Windows it will give you that date instead, but it's still handy.

November 9, 201410 yr Interesting but I just look in Programs and Features to see when the majority of programs were installed.
November 9, 201410 yr Author FPCH Admin That won't tell you when your OS was installed. This command will. ~I know that you believe you understand what you think I said, but I'm not sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant.~~~Robert McCloskey~~
November 9, 201410 yr Author FPCH Admin It's a command, Rich, not an installation. :D ~I know that you believe you understand what you think I said, but I'm not sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant.~~~Robert McCloskey~~
