    Windows Time is out of sync and can't be synchronized


    I can't seem to synchronize the built-in windows clock. It's out of sync by 75 seconds which may affect some network performance, I believe. When I go to settings and click "Sync now", it runs for a minute and then displays an error "Time synchronization failed. Please check network connectivity and retry". The troubleshooting I've tried so far:1 Changed time server to "time.google.com" or "time.nist.gov"2 Restarted "Windows Time" service and changed its settings to "allow service to interact with desktop"3 Changed locale and then changed it backNothing works and my clock is still out of

    Unable to sync Windows 10 time with time servers

    I have a new, OEM installation of Windows 10 that is unable to contact any time servers to sync the system time. Each attempt gives me a timeout error, and pinging the time server times out as well. Here is what I've tried:

    • Checked that the Windows Time service is running and set to automatic startup, and restarted it
    • Disabled my firewall
    • Tried using time.nist.gov, which is currently working according to NIST
    • These steps using w32time, which appeared to succeed but didn't update the time

    The time is currently off by 7 hours, which shouldn't be far enough to break Internet syncing.

    EDIT: Just tried the same steps on my other computer which boots only Windows (albeit an longer-standing installation of 10), and had the exact same issue, except when I try syncing it simply says "An error occurred when Windows was synchronizing with time.nist.gov." So I highly doubt it is dual boot-related. What is going on?

    Windows 8.1: "System time synchronized with the hardware clock."

    There is a separate Time Synchronize task in Task Scheduler that causes this, AFAIK. If you don't have internet syncing on(why don't you?) it will sync the time with the system BIOS time.

    (Windows 10 22H2 19045-2130) Dear Brink I have this problem:


    Windows Time is out of sync and can't be synchronized 378035d1666954494t-date-time-synchronization-impostazioni-sincronizzazione.png



    Windows Time is out of sync and can't be synchronized 378036d1666954537t-date-time-synchronization-sincronizza-ora-server.png

    Access Denied so I can no longer synchronize the time which server is chosen. What can you suggest me to do?
