RunAsDate.exe – Run a program with the specified date/time

Software introduction

RunAsDate is a small utility that lets you run a program at a specified date and time. This utility will not change your computer’s current system date and time, but it will only inject the date/time you specify into the desired application.

You can run multiple applications at the same time, each using a different date and time, while the actual date/time of the system continues to function normally.

How does it work ?

RunAsDate intercepts the kernel API calls that returns the current date and time (GetSystemTime, GetLocalTime, GetSystemTimeAsFileTime, NtQuerySystemTime, GetSystemTimePreciseAsFileTime), and replaces the current date/time with the date/time that you specify.

System Requirements

RunAsDate works under Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2008, Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8, and Windows 10. Older versions of Windows are not supported. There is also x64 version available in a separated download, for using with x64 applications.

Basic operation

1) Officially provide two versions of X32 and X64, you need to choose according to your software situation! Don’t know what to choose? Try them one by one!
