    Can prevent "LOCAL SERVICE" from changing the system time?

    I posted a question because I needed help.

    Security Settings (secpol.msc) - Local Policy - User Rights Assignment - Change the system time

    The default member of the above item is "Administrators, LOCAL SERVICE".

    I deleted "LOCAL SERVICE" from the "Change the system time" item according to the work instruction, but it was restored again.

    Is there a way to enable deletion or prevent "LOCAL SERVICE" from changing the system time?

    thanks.

    Service Host: Local System (16)

    Windows 10, DSL internet with approx 120kbp speed. When the Service Host: Local System (16) utilizes the internet it uses up all the bandwidth preventing use of the internet and online gaming for an indeterminate amount of time without warning. Is there
    a way I can schedule a time for this feature to do its business or limit its impact on my bandwidth? I cannot disable it without windows potentially shutting down. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

    Can prevent "LOCAL SERVICE" from changing the system time? [​IMG]



    if I try the 2nd option and this is what I get
    Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.19041.572]
    (c) 2020 Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.


    C:\WINDOWS\system32>w32tm /resync
    The following error occurred: The service has not been started. (0x80070426)


    C:\WINDOWS\system32>net start w32time
    System error 5 has occurred.


    Access is denied.




    C:\WINDOWS\system32>


    trying the 3rd option gives me the message that time synchronization failed
