    Problem with synching to time server


    When looking through the list of events in Windows Event Viewer, I have, for a long while now, been getting, every day, several warnings that look like this:-

    Event 134, Time service
    NtpClient was unable to set a manual peer to use as a time source because of DNS resolution error on 'time-new.nist.gov'. NtpClient will try again in 15 minutes and double the reattempt interval thereafter. The error was: No such host is known. (0x80072AF9).

    The most recent of these was today at 15:28. When I look at the internet time settings (via control panel), it says the clock was successfully synchronised with time.nst.gov on 22/10/2018 (today) at 16:19 (a few minutes ago). The list of time servers is as follows:-

    time.windows.com
    time.nist.gov
    time.nw.nist.gov
    time-a.nist.gov
    time-b.nist.gov

    My questions is this: Why is the NTP client apparently trying to synchronise using a server that isn’t in the list? Where is it getting the server name 'time-new.nist.gov' from? It’s not in the list - only ‘time.nw.nist.gov’.
    If I set the time server to time.windows.com should it cure the problem?

    :)

    Edge not synching favorites


    Edge was synching favorites nicely till recently - probably until the Fall Creators Update. Now it's stopped synching. I have 2 computers with the same windows login account and both set to synch in both windows and edge.

    I've tried an alternative dns server (8.8.8.8) which helped some people with the problem a year ago but it didn't fix it.

    Anyone else have this problem?

  3. windows calendar is not synching

    Hello,

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

    I understand that the Calendar is not synching in Windows. We will help you.

    • Is the Calendar not synching in Windows Phone or PC?
    If the Calendar is not synching in PC I suggest you to follow the below steps and check if it helps you.

    Let's try the below steps and check if it helps to resolve the issue.

    Step 1: I suggest you to run the
    Troubleshooter for Windows App and see if it helps to resolve the issue.

    Refer:
    Windows 10 Apps troubleshooter


    Step 2: If the issue persists, then I suggest you to
    remove and reconfigure the account back in the Mail app.


    Reconfiguring the account should force it to sync again and resolve the issue.

    For reference: Refer:

    Problem with synching to time server

    Intermittent problems with TLS handshake and being timed out


    Check DNS settings for both network adapters. Your Wifi might be set to use a different DNS server.

    Getting message when trying to connect - Windows 10 Forums

    Option Two follow steps then pick a DNS server from the list in item 7. Personally I use CloudFlare DNS

    EDIT: Reset router first as already suggested.
