Almost every unix operating system comes with a utility called uptime that tells you how long your server has been running.
Unfortunately no such tool comes with windows, but there are a few ways to determine the date you computer was last started. Type the following in to the command prompt.
systeminformation
One of the oldest methods to find the uptime of a Windows server is to use the net statistics command. This technique worked as far back as Windows NT and Windows 2000:
net statistics server
It will output something like:
Server Statistics for \\PETE Statistics since 6/9/2002 11:09 AM
This still works on a Windows Server 2022 machine, but you have to use net statistics workstation instead of server.
net helpHere are some examples using the net command.
List all accounts in a domain:
net accounts /DOMAINSend a message to all users in the domain (a text box pops up). Replace /DOMAIN with a username to send to just one user.
net send /DOMAIN "The server is rebooting"Start a service
net start "Service Name"Stop a service
net stop "Service Name"

Note this should also work on Windows 2003 Server
You can get the uptime utility from Microsoft on this page: http://www.microsoft.com/ntserver/nts/downloads/management/uptime/default.asp
this will do it, open cmd and type systeminfo | find "Up Time"
Command Line for Windows uptime: type Systeminfo at the command line prompt, scroll down to uptime.
Thanks a lot the commands was so simple and iam grateful to the guy who posted this.
systeminfo |find "Up Time" |msg * that will create a message box for you. If you prefer the net program switch it to Workstation: net statistics Workstation The computer starts before the server does.
