I used Ubuntu on DVR to boot a PC with Win10 OS and was not allowed to copy-paste some docs from the Win32 folder. How is this possible? When I boot from a DVD, do the OS files on a HDD remain active?

Procedure to Synchronize the System Time to Hardware Clock
This is a one-time procedure to ensure that your hardware clock's time zone is correctly and consistently recognized by all the Linux...

The time works AoK in Ubuntu. However, when I boot Windows OS it shows wrong local time. As long as I do not boot Ubuntu, Windows OS clock maintains correct local time.

I remember on install choosing to have hardware clock set to UTC. Is there a way to undo?

When I boot Ubuntu, the OS resets the BIOS clock from local time to Zulu time. How can I keep the BIOS clock set to local time instead?

Thanks for the advice to run apt-get. Seems that the only repository other than Canonical is at fault.
