🚀 TimeGuardian 1.0.0 — Ultra‑Precise Time Sync for Windows

TimeGuardian is a polished Windows tray app that keeps your clock laser‑accurate with minimal resource usage. It smart‑selects the fastest NTP server (multi‑sample median), corrects drift only when meaningful, and provides a clean, status‑aware tray UX. Optional features include timezone/region tuning from IP using resilient, multi‑source lookups.

⬇️ Download

  • Portable EXE: TimeGuardian.exe (no installer)
    • Supported OS: Windows 7, 8, 10, 11 (x64)
    • First run: A tray icon appears near the clock. Right‑click for Settings and actions.

🧭 Highlights

  • Smart NTP selection (lowest latency), multi‑sample median RTT for accuracy
  • “Ping servers” with live progress bar, results sorted by latency (NTP → ICMP fallback)
  • Status icons: Idle (blue), Connected (green), Disconnected (red)
  • Optional: Timezone from IP (parallel providers) and Windows region alignment
  • Startup at login (no admin), global notification toggle, elegant UI

📦 How to use

  1. Run TimeGuardian.exe.
  2. Right‑click the tray icon:
    • Sync now, Settings, Timezone tools, Startup toggle.
  3. Optional: Place logo.png next to the EXE to brand the tray/notifications.

🔐 Permissions

  • System time changes prompt for elevation (UAC). Other features run without admin.
  • Corporate policies may restrict time changes; accept the prompt when asked.

🧪 Notes

  • Very low RTTs (e.g., 2–5 ms) are normal for nearby or anycasted NTP servers.
  • If the EXE icon looks wrong in Explorer, rename the EXE once (refreshes icon cache).
