Solution 1

Just Use this code..

protected void UpdateTimer_Tick(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    Label3.Text = "Last Updated at : " 
         + DateTime.Now.AddMinutes(-5).ToLongTimeString();
}

Solution 3

DateTime's AddMinutes method Adds the No. of minutes specified in parameter. If it's a Negative Number then it subtracts that No. of minutes.

So,
DateTime.Now.AddMinutes(-5) will serve the purpose.

Hope this helps.
