Solved When did your clock last synchronise?

I just changed my internet timesync source to
time.nist.gov
and my timesync failures stopped.

At NIST they have a page of info about time servers and time setting protocols
NIST Internet Time Service (ITS)
Down the bottom of that page is a download for a time set program from NIST. It can be run by the Windows Task Scheduler.
There is also a link to other providers and some source code for a roll your own time setter.

Windows time sync will NOT adjust your clock if the current date is more than 5 min. different from the time server. This is related to the timekeeping software for the Kerberos security protocol (used by Active Directory and web cookies for secure sites).

While the setting is configurable, it defaults to 5 min.

Manually change Windows' date to within a minute of the actual time, then force a time resync.

Checked Win 11 settings and it still shows last sync (manual by me) as 13 Oct 22. I have two other Win 11 22H2 machines. I'll have a look at them.

All my W11 machines still sync automatically every day. I've just checked the one I'm currently using, an Insider Beta install, and it did so automatically this morning when I woke the PC from sleep.

I just find something strange. When I checked by right clicking on the clock then click on Adjust time/date it shows that my clock was synced on Thursday. When I checked through Control Panel > Date and Time, it shows that the clock was synced today.

I found similar back in my post #18 of this thread. The Win 11 settings app does not appear to have taken over all the Time setting functions. If you set the the time in the Control Panel then Settings doesn't know it. If you change the time server then Settings knows about it.

Edit: I just forced a sync in Settings and the Control Panel time setting doesn't know about it.
