   It is a tool that retrieves information from the system for many things.   
   XP Pro and above have it installed by default - try this:   
      
      
   :: time and date stamp YYYYMMDD, HHMMSS and YYYY-MM-DD_HH-MM-SS   
   @echo off   
   for /f "delims=" %%a in ('wmic OS Get localdatetime  ^| find "."') do set   
   "dt=%%a"   
   set "YY=%dt:~2,2%"   
   set "YYYY=%dt:~0,4%"   
   set "MM=%dt:~4,2%"   
   set "DD=%dt:~6,2%"   
   set "HH=%dt:~8,2%"   
   set "Min=%dt:~10,2%"   
   set "Sec=%dt:~12,2%"   
      
   set datestamp=%YYYY%%MM%%DD%   
   set timestamp=%HH%%Min%%Sec%   
   set fullstamp=%YYYY%-%MM%-%DD%_%HH%-%Min%-%Sec%   
   echo datestamp: "%datestamp%"   
   echo timestamp: "%timestamp%"   
   echo fullstamp: "%fullstamp%"   
   pause
