    Internet time gives out wrong time after sync


    Hi,

    I've had a problem for a while where windows will show the wrong time and thus show the wrong time on applications like discord. The time is out by 7 hours eg It should show 22:00 but shows 15:00.

    If I set the time automatically it gives the wrong time so I tried to synchronise the clock with time.windows.com but it still produced the wrong time. I tried to then sync it with time.nist.gov and 0.uk.pool.ntp.org but it still produces the wrong time. I've tried to change the time in the boot menu but still does not work with the applications like discord.

    I've tried every guide I could find but they all suggest synchronising the internet time server would work which it doesn't.

    Any ideas?

    :)

  2. Unable to sync Windows 10 time with time servers

    I have a new, OEM installation of Windows 10 that is unable to contact any time servers to sync the system time. Each attempt gives me a timeout error, and pinging the time server times out as well. Here is what I've tried:

    • Checked that the Windows Time service is running and set to automatic startup, and restarted it
    • Disabled my firewall
    • Tried using time.nist.gov, which is currently working according to NIST
    • These steps using w32time, which appeared to succeed but didn't update the time

    The time is currently off by 7 hours, which shouldn't be far enough to break Internet syncing.

    EDIT: Just tried the same steps on my other computer which boots only Windows (albeit an longer-standing installation of 10), and had the exact same issue, except when I try syncing it simply says "An error occurred when Windows was synchronizing with time.nist.gov." So I highly doubt it is dual boot-related. What is going on?
