    Synchronizing internet time servers


    Hello,

    I am trying to sync computers to the internet time server time.nist.gov. I have created a script where a registry key has been updated to point to the proper server and it works but the time does not automatically synchronize to it.

    Is there a way to automate this box to be checked?

    Synchronize Clock with an Internet Time Server in Windows 10  


    With me the Windows time is about 2-3 minutes off.

    I did try to resync
    Control Panel\Clock, Language and Region->Tab Internet Time change settings
    using both time.windows.com and time.nist.gov
    no change

    then w32tm /resync
    then set services.msc windows time->automatic

    still no change.

    didn't go thru the steps of Joanne: would not know where to find this 'SpecialPollInterval'-thing.

    discovered this 'wrong windows time' as I normally set all clocks and my wristwatch to Windows.
    Updated all times when changing from Feb. 29 to march 01 and started missing the news on the radio and tv.

    Will not be using Windows time anymore.

    Hello tfwul, Synchronizing internet time servers :)

    Are you getting a successful sync using OPTION ONE?

    You last screenshot from using OPTION TWO show that is was not able to sync with the time server.

    If you're not getting successful syncs in a row, then you may need to keep trying different time servers until you find a more reliable one.

    Here's the tutorial below for SpecialPollInterval that's for how to increase the update interval for Internet time synchronization to have it check and sync more often.

    Synchronizing internet time servers

    Windows fails to synchronize with internet time - it times out

    Hi,

    You might have a different Date and Time configuration that's why your Windows fails to synchronize with
    Internet Time. To have this checked, try to change the server in your Internet Time Settings by following the steps below:

    • Go to Control Panel > Date and Time.
    • Click on the Internet Time tab: then, click on Change settings.
    • Try to change or choose the Server, tick on the Update now, and click on
      OK.

    Let us know the results after following the resolution provided.
