  1. Time stops when idling


    Hey !
    It has been a few days that, everytime i go to sleep or afk, the time stops and I have to set it back when I'm back !
    For instance, yesterday i left at 0:12am and today the time was stuck at 00:50 or something like that. So what I did is go to time settings to uncheck then check again the "set automatically" button.
    I don't know what to do, I already tried to completely reset my pc but it didn't change anything to that problem ..
    Do you have any ideas ? *Huh

    I hope my english is not so confused *Zip

    :)

    Windows 10 performance issue

    I've also tracked the same issue down to ngen.exe, ngentask.exe and mscorsvw.exe. It appears to happen when the computer sits idle. Based on my research, ngen is supposed to kick in during idle times but the problem is that it doesn't stop when activity
    resumes.

    Still looking for a solution...

    How does window 10 screen time counts the time left

    How does windows 10 actually count or calculate screen time a located and left. Does it stop counting screen time whend the user is still logged in but idle? If so how does it know the user is idle?

    I say this because it seems like my child's 2.5hrs of screen time is used up very quickly when he actually only 'actively' using the PC for a much shorter time.

    that shouldn't affect the time when computer is only sleeping

  5. You MIGHT try setting an internet clockto update it. I prefer tick.usno.navy.mil.

    They're the ones that keep the atomic clocks. The Windows default clock sucks.

    This is a real shot in the dark, but do you have AOL Desktop installed? I installed the latest AOL Desktop on my WIN 7 pc and it affected the Windows clock. I rolled AOL back to a prior version and the clock worked fine again
