Ladies and gentlemen,

don’t get me wrong, to get the system uptime a cmd -> systeminfo -> look for uptime or boottime is also sufficient. But the options make this tool so helpful!

For example: uptime /s

C:\Documents and Settings\sadmin-punzot\Desktop>uptime /s
Uptime Report for: \\ServernameXYZ

Current OS: Windows Server (R) 2008 Standard, Service Pack 2, Multiprocessor
e.
Time Zone: @tzres.dll,-301
