Getsystemtimepreciseasfiletime Windows 7 Patched -

The GetSystemTimePreciseAsFileTime function, introduced in Windows 7 SP1 and later patched for Windows 7, returns the system time in 100-nanosecond intervals, with a much higher degree of precision than traditional functions. This function utilizes the Windows Time Service (W32Time) and the system's underlying hardware capabilities, such as the CPU's timestamp counter (TSC) or the High-Precision Event Timer (HPET), to provide precise timing.
