MS timestamps are 100 nanosecond units (1e-7) since 1 Jan, 1601.

Unix timestamps are seconds (plus decimals?) since 1 Jan 1970.

So to convert Unix style to MS, you add 11644473600 and multiply by 1e7.

To go the other way you divide by 1e7, subtract 11644473600, and truncate to an integer.

Where does the value, 1134744389.41727 come from? and what do you want to do with it?

It appears to be a unix timestamp from a few days ago:

print scalar localtime 1134744389.41727;;
