    Windows 10 Set time automatically not working

    • Open Administrative Tools (Control Panel\System and Security\Administrative Tools)
    • Under Administrative tools open Services
    • Under services locate and open Windows Time (W32Time). This should open Windows Time Property window.
    • In this window under "General" tab (should be opened by default) you should find a drop down list for "Startup Type".
    • For me it was set to "Manual" and that is why I was facing this problem. When I changed it to "Automatic (Delayed Start)"
      my problem was solved.

    how should Windows update service be set manual or auto triggered ?

    Original Title: Windows update service

    when you open services and check Windows update it is set for manual triggered, is this correct ? only asking because when you change it to automatic triggered then after restart it stops certain errors like id 202 windows update blocked by policy ? , so
    how should Windows update service be set manual or auto triggered ? thanks.
