Thanks for this, "net statistics workstation" works a treat :)

systeminfo doesn't show uptime on Windows Server 2008 R2
systeminfo gives me an error of "invalid CLASS" on my Windows 7 x64.

Make a uptime.cmd and add:
systeminfo | find "System Up Time:"
pause

Thats it, no mental algebra...

... or you could just use the system up time counter, and have things logged to file at a predefined interval, without having to manually type a command every time you what an update.

Use

systeminfo | find "System Up Time"

which will do the "grep" for you.

And THAT'S why Monad/MSH will rock so much. It has all of those filtering tools built-in.

Are you saying that your way of getting uptime is better than mine?
