Windows 10: Date and Time Issues

I haven't used my surface since Febuary of 2020 so my date is stuck on Febuary 24, 2020 and the time is also wrong. I've tried reselecting my time zone but that didn't work so I was looking for a manual way to fix it. Is there an option for manually inputting dates and times? Maybe reselecting the time zone and then restarting my surface would fix it?

Automatic Time and Date - anyone having issues?

Hi Mark,

I do appreciate your efforts and time, and will assist you with the issue.


I suggest you to synchronize your computer clock with an Internet time server.

You can synchronize your computer clock with an Internet time server. This means that the clock on your computer is updated to match the clock on the time server, which can help ensure that the clock on your computer is accurate. Your clock is
typically updated once a week and needs to be connected to the Internet for the synchronization to occur.

Note: If your computer is on a domain, you can't synchronize your clock with an Internet time server.

Please follow the steps below:

• 
  Open date and time by clicking on the clock at the bottom right corner of your screen.
  
• 
  Click on date and time settings.
  
• 
  In the bottom click on additional date, time and regional settings.
  
• 
  Select first option in date and time.
  
• 
  Click on the Internet time tab.
  
• 
  Click on change settings.
  
• 
  Select time.nist.gov from the drop down list.
  

Hope this helps in resolving the issue. If the issue persists, do get back to us. We will be happy to assist you.
