Hi,
I noticed my computer clock was hours off, in the future.
I did some research, and found the following link:

I had just boot up to Ubuntu and rebooted into Windows, and noticed the
problem.
So maybe I need to check the time in Linux when I boot up with that drive.
Where in Ubuntu does one check the clock settings, to automatically
check time?
I'm currently in Windows, so I can't check it, but I'm guessing that in
settings there is something for the clock there.
This computer is only about a year old, so it would not be the cMos battery.

It's not the time, it's the timezone. It is more likely the problem is
due to the fact that Windows and Ubuntu make different assumptions about
what timezone the computer's CMOS clock is set to. Windows assumes it is
local time. Ubuntu assumes it is UTC. That Lifehacker article describes
a registry hack to change Windows to assume the CMOS clock is set to
UTC. I don't recommend that hack, because last I knew it wasn't fully
supported by Microsoft, even in Windows 10. So what I do is change
Ubuntu's assumption, using the timedatectl command:
timedatectl set-local-rtc 1
