Using Windows 10 to your computer system or laptop? With its default setting, you can see the date and the time at the bottom right corner of the taskbar. The Windows 10 operating system determines the time zone and then sets the time of your system accordingly. However, it may happen that the time gets automatically changed. This situation may remain the same even if you set the time manually or restart your device. If it ever happened to you, don’t panic as we have got the complete solution to this Windows 10 error covered in this article.
How it can be fixed?
To fix this minor issue, all you have to do is try any of the solution listed below:
Check Date & Time Settings
From Windows menu, go the settings -> time & setting -> date & time. You will find three options there: Set time automatically, Set time zone automatically and Change date and time. Just make sure that the first two options i.e. time & time zones are ON. If it doesn’t works, change date and time by entering the values manually. However, if you wish to enter the time zone automatically, do remember to turn off “Set time zone automatically” option.
Time Service Setting
It could be a possibility that you are facing this issue because of the incorrect time service configuration. So, fix it first by pressing “Windows Key + S” together and then selecting “Services” from the menu. Now locate window time service and double click on it. Check the “Startup Type” and set it to “Automatic”. Also check out that the “Service Status” and if it is “Running” then restart it by clicking over stop and start button again. Apply these changed settings and click OK.
Internet Time Server- Change it manually!
