Windows 10: Automatic Windows Resync time after reboot setup

Hi Microsoft!I have a Windows computer that upon reboot, the time is often wrong, this may be due to my computer lacking a CMOS battery, the reason that I have the CMOS battery removed is that I want my computer to turn on when there is power from the wall, I see no option to turn that function on in BIOS, so the only way to make it turn on is to pull out that CMOS battery out Ok, so obviously clock is messed up upon reboot, however, my computer is plugged into my router and there is definitely a way to make windows auto sync time after reboot so everything works, not me manually going to se

Windows reboots to Windows Setup during installation

Dear Support Community,

I have created a working Windows Creation Media instance on a USB (previously used successfully to install Windows on my laptop M2. NVME SSD) and am attempting to install Windows on a new M2. NVME SSD (identical brand and make) in my desktop with the same USB. I replaced the old SSD on the motherboard with the new SSD and set the boot order so it boots from (1) USB (2) M2. NVME.

Here are the anomalies and issues:

1. At Windows Setup screen appears and gives options to “Install” or “Repair.”
   
   1. Choosing “Install” takes me to the terms and conditions.
      
   2. Using my mouse, I am unable to accept the terms.
      
   3. Using keyboard keys (Tab, Shift-tab, Spacebar, etc.) does not work to navigate the terms.
      
   4. I can only read the terms and click the box and “Next” if I press CTRL+ALT+DEL and wait about 3 sec.
      
2. At the installation screen, the existing drives are listed. I have two SATA HDD drives installed, which appear, and the newly installed drive, which I leave Unallocated.
   
3. Windows installation proceeds through each step until it reaches the last step (“Finishing…”) when it says it needs to reboot to continue.
   
4. It allows me to Reboot by clicking or gives a countdown.
   
5. As it reboots, it goes back to the Windows Setup screen.
   
6. If I proceed with “Install,” the new drive appears with new windows partitions showing on the new drive.
   
7. At this point, I have tried the following, which only lead to the same Reboot sequence:
   
   1. Delete the three new partitions on the new disk and start over again.
      
   2. Open Bios and restore Factory Default Settings
      
   3. Try the Repair option at Windows Setup and go through the other steps.
      
8. When I have installed Windows on the new drive with unallocated space and removed the USB after the reboot sequence, I get the following error:
   
   1. Error 1962 No Operating System Detected (it’s a Lenovo desktop).
      
9. I have seen suggestions to clear the CMOS cache by removing the battery. I have not tried this because it seems risky. I will if that’s the most logical recommendation.
   

Any further help would be very appreciated. I am confused about what’s next. It’s vital I get this computer working and do not have the means to obtain another hard drive.

Thank you,

Mark

Date and time does not run automatically apart from your guided setting

Hi Gopal,

Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community and being part of Windows 10.

I understand your concern about accessing date & time on your device. We will help you with this issue.

Do let us know if you have turned on Set time automatically and Set time zone automatically?

Try the below and check if it helps.

Method 1: I suggest you to turn on automatic time setup if not yet done.

  Taskbar, click on Change the date and time.

Windows Time Service maintains date and time synchronization on all clients and servers in the network. If this service is stopped date and time synchronization will be unavailable. If this service is disabled,
any services that explicitly depends on it will fail to start.

Step 1: Stop the service:

• Press Windows Key + R on the keyboard and type
  services.msc, Services window gets opened.
• Search for Windows Time service and stop.
• To do so, right click on each service select Stop

  services.msc, Services window gets opened.

  Properties.

  Startup type to Automatic.
