UPDATE: No longer needed. The repack page on FitGirl's site now includes a crackfix RAR which fixes this. Though if you use my method below, you don't need that. I'd still recommend the crackfix, but I'll leave this post up in case anyone wants to use it.

Hello all, I wrote this simple .bat file which can be used to automatically fix FitGirl's Black Myth: Wukong repack not starting.

This manually sets your PC date to 3/31/2026, launches the game, then re-enables "Set time automatically" in the Windows settings.

With this you can click one button to correctly start the game, without ever worrying about time settings.

Instructions:

1. Open the game install directory (where b1.exe is)
2. Right click > New Text document > Rename it to start.bat
3. Edit start.bat and paste the following:

​

@echo off
setlocal

:: Run as admin (to set time)
net session >nul 2>&1
if %errorlevel% neq 0 (
    powershell -Command "Start-Process '%~f0' -Verb RunAs"
    exit /b
)

:: Disable "Set time automatically"
reg add "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\W32Time\Parameters" /v Type /t REG_SZ /d NoSync /f >nul
net stop w32time >nul 2>&1

:: Set date/time to 3/31/2026 3:00 PM
powershell -Command "Set-Date -Date '2026-03-31 15:00:00'"

:: Launch Black Myth: Wukong
start "" "%~dp0b1\Binaries\Win64\b1-Win64-Shipping.exe"

:: Wait 5 seconds
timeout /t 5 /nobreak >nuls

:: Re-enable "Set time automatically"
reg add "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\W32Time\Parameters" /v Type /t REG_SZ /d NTP /f >nul
net start w32time >nul 2>&1
w32tm /resync /force >nul 2>&1

endlocal
exit /b

Save the file and exit. Now you can simply double click start.bat and it will correctly run the game. NOTE: This must be used to launch every time. Otherwise you will need to set the time manually.

You can also right click start.bat and click "Create shortcut", then copy that to your desktop. Enjoy!
