Are you dualbooting by any chance? Windows and Linux treat the system timer differently, hence the discrepancy.

qwwerty11433yIn my case it does not remember keyboard layout. I have only one installed in the system so no accidental switches. Sometimes its enough to lock the PC and when i come back after few hours its changed from qwerty to qwertz

10Dev28993y@RememberMe I am actually. If that is causing it, I wonder how the two systems treat the time differently
-
@10Dev windows assumes the timer is in local time, Linux assumes it's UTC. So unless you're UTC, one of the two will get fucked in a dual boot. You could make Linux use local time for consistency I think.
Not really a fault of either system, it's just a different design choice. -
hjk10157313y@10Dev and yes the Linux
one is the sane one. You can flip a setting to make Windows use UTC as system time (of course Linux can also be set to local).
