Windows Canary channel. Decided to utilize both lan adapters on my Mobo. Using Windows Network bridge, bridged both connections. Everything works fine. This system is a triple boot system. So I exited Canary and booted into OEM. Did the same thing here but now IPV4 doesn't work. Looking around thru the various settings I found here on the OEM version the DHCP Obtain/Release dates show DECEMBER 31, 1969. What ? Geez. Almost as old as me....Jul 1962. ***********PROBLEM SOLVED. DHCP didn't come about till 1993. Lease reverted all the way back to Unix Epoch days....What an oddity !

    Hi kirbster 1,

    Welcome to the Microsoft community and thank you for asking your question in the community!

    I understand that you have a problem with the DHCP time display.

    I recommend that you adjust the time settings, please try the following steps:

    1. Right-click on the date and time in the lower right corner and select "Adjust Date/Time" from the pop-up menu.
    2. In the date and time window, click on "Adjust time automatically" (if this is turned on, please turn it off and on again to try to solve the problem of incorrectly displaying the time).

    If the above solution is not effective, please try to check the DHCP timestamps of your other two operating systems, if it is normal, please record the DHCP configuration information of your other two systems, and then log in to your current system to configure it manually.

    If the display is still abnormal, please open the Feedback Center on your computer via Windows+F to give feedback to Microsoft.

    Thank you again for your understanding and support! Please let me know if I have misunderstood. Tell us the results and we will get back to you as soon as possible. We look forward to hearing from you.

    Best regards,

    Dear kirbster 1!

    I noticed that you had previously marked my offer as "Not Helpful". You also changed the title of the issue to "Resolved", which I'm glad to hear.

    I apologize for not being able to successfully resolve your issue earlier. But I would still like to request you to share your solution to the problem? Since you are a Windows Canary channel user, your answer can help more other users in Windows Canary channel who have the same problem.

    Thanks again for your understanding and support!

    Best regards,

    Yang.Z
