The clock in WSL2 becomes desynchronized after waking from sleep or hibernation. While a potential solution involves running sudo sync_clock in WSL to correct the time, this command must be executed each time the system resumes from sleep or hibernation. How can this issue be permanently resolved?
One possible solution is to create a script that runs the sudo hwclock --hctosys command automatically after sleep to synchronize the hardware clock with the system time. You can set up a systemd service within your WSL2 instance to handle this. Create a new service file in /etc/systemd/system/ and configure it to run your script on resume. While this requires some initial setup, it automates the resynchronization process, ensuring the clocks are always in sync without manual intervention.
