Windows 10: Taskbar clock is one hour ahead of internal clock. How do I synchronize them?

Hello. I have the strangest issue where my taskbar clock is one hour ahead of the rest of my laptop. For instance, I downloaded a file at 10:56AM. My taskbar clock said 10:56AM but in File Explorer the date modified shows 9:56AM. This one hour difference can be seen everywhere else in system settings. Attached is a picture of Windows settings and my taskbar clock. You can see how they are exactly one hour apart top middle and bottom right of image.I have tried changing the time and time zone in settings but it hasn't helped.

Clock and date on Taskbar missing

My clock and date disappeared from the taskbar in windows 10. After trying various suggestions, none of which worked, but this did work for me:

Right click on an empty space on the taskbar,

Click settings

In the option "Move Taskbar" move it to right or top of the screen and the clock reappears, when I returned the taskbar back to the bottom, the clock and date was still visible.

Obviously a Microsoft Glitch, in the windows 10 Anniversary update. I haven't restarted my PC since, so will be interesting to see if the clock remains there.
