Example snippet (conceptual):
GetSystemTimePreciseAsFileTime is a Windows API that returns the current system time with high precision. It was introduced in Windows 8 / Windows Server 2012 and is not available on stock Windows 7. Below are practical options and code patterns to achieve high-resolution time on Windows 7 and how to handle calls safely if you must run on multiple Windows versions. getsystemtimepreciseasfiletime windows 7 upd
: Recent versions of Visual Studio (v145 toolset) automatically include dependencies on this function even if the developer didn't explicitly call it. ULONGLONG resultTime = startTimeInt + total100ns
