Windows 10: Windows XP - Administrator can't change system date/time

Hi,I am trying to support a customer who has an old PC running Windows XP Professional. The sole purpose of this PC is to run a custom machine control application. As it still serves this purpose just fine and is not connected to the internet, it is hard to justify upgrading to a new version of Windows because this would require a very significant rework of the custom application.With this being the background, the customer has what seems to be a simple problem - they want to adjust the system time. When I setup this PC back in 2010-2011, I kept notes on all the user accounts I created an

Date and Time Year is 3015 and can't change to 2015.

Can't able to change the system time

Hi,

If the system time is not changing after configuring the date and time settings on Control Panel, most likely, the BIOS clock is also incorrect. We suggest making sure that the date and time settings on your computer is properly configured. To configure
the date and time settings, follow the steps below:

• In Cortana search, type control panel.
• Choose Control Panel from the list.
• Select Clock, Language, and Region.
• Click Date and Time.
• Click Change date and time, then set the correct information.
• Click Change time zone, then select the correct time zone.
• Click Apply and then click OK.

If the system time still didn't change, we recommend that you contact the computer manufacturer for further assistance on how to check and configure the BIOS clock of your device.

Feel free to post back if you have other concerns.
