Windows 10: why Laptop is showing wrong time and date though i have set up time and date at automatic mode.

Wrongly it is showing Vilnius Latvian time, but it should show Amsterdam Netherlands time. The windows update to Windows 11, version 23H2 just completed on 1 Oct 2024.Also when I take it off automatic and put it back to Amsterdam time GMT+1, as soon as I put on automatice it switches back again to Vilnius GMT +2

Time & date always wrong

Since upgrading to Windows 11 a few months ago, the time and date on my system are always wrong on boot. I have to go into date & time settings and click "Sync Now" to fix it.

I've tried multiple debugging steps but nothing has worked:

1. Replaced the CMOS battery. I also dualboot linux on my PC and the time is correct there. My BIOS settings are saved. So I believe the battery is fine.
   
2. Set "Windows Time Service" in services.msc to start automatically. Stopped and restarted it.
   
3. Run SFC and DISM checks. Both OK.
   
4. Ran windows update. Everything is up to date.
   
5. Re registered w32time:
   
   

Everything seems to be fine once i manually sync time. So why isn't it syncing on boot? Where is it getting the wrong time from if the BIOS time is correct?

 

Date and Time Not Syncing Automatically

I am a Windows 10 user. I am also using Linux Ubuntu in parallel with Windows 10 as I have dual booted my laptop. The problem I am facing is that the date and time is not automatically syncing in Windows 10. Everytime I boot Windows, I have to manually sync
it by going to "Date and Time Settings" and clicking on Sync Now.

The date and time in ubuntu is working just fine and shows no problem which indicates that there is no hardware issue.

The "Set time automatically" option in Date & Time settings is on but it doesn't seem to work.

Any suggestions are welcome.

Thanking you in advance.
