Also suffering from this, clock is constantly drifting. Have the same version numbers as OP for everything.

It's not a command flag problem but instad a problem on Windows 11 OS (I think). I have the same version of WSL and Kernel on a Win10 machine and everything working like a charm without drifting in time syncronization on Ubuntu 22.04 WSL distribution.

Versione WSL: 1.2.5.0 Versione kernel: 5.15.90.1 Versione WSLg: 1.0.51 Versione MSRDC: 1.2.3770 Versione Direct3D: 1.608.2-61064218 Versione DXCore: 10.0.25131.1002-220531-1700.rs-onecore-base2-hyp Versione di Windows: 10.0.19045.3208

Version are similar but still configurations must be different. I Guess!!!

I'm seeing the same issue when running with Arch Linux on WSL-2, using ntpdate fixes the problem (sudo hwclock -s no longer works for me). Currently updating clock in my .bashrc file will create a cron job or system unit file to run this more often until issue is resolved

I am running archlinux and ended up installing systemd-timesyncd

webstean commented 1 year ago

This has been a bug for years!! Surely it should be the job of the WSL to keep time properly across distributions

I am dealing with this issue and I agree with @matteokutufa this must be specific to Windows 11. I used WSL1 and 2 on a corporate Windows 10 machine for years and never experienced this. Now using WSL2 on a Windows 11 machine (fresh install even) and every time the system sleeps and I return, WSL time is off. I've updated wsl and Ubuntu and still continues to happen. I've seen in other threads this issue is allegedly fixed but it is not.
