Hello, I am having trouble with my computer time as it says it is 9:48AM when it is actually 5:18PM. I have set the correct timezone, which is Adelaide. Because it is incorrect, I tried going into the internet time tab and tried synchronizing with ALL of the sites/lists it gave me, none of them worked

As all of those gave an error saying
"Unable to start Windows Time Service. Please try again later."

Does anybody know how to fix this? It is fustrating having the wrong time on the computer as it stuffs up a lot of my other programs.
My computer is Windows 7 64bit

Click the clock in the bottom right corner...change date and time settings...click internet time tab at the top of the pop up...change settings(administrator)...make sure the check box for "synchronize with internet time server" box is checked...and make sure "time.windows.com"(without the ") is put into the blank space...click update now and you should be good to go granted you are connected to the internet fully.

If you want you can resync time using a command prompt..

1. Open CMD(run as administrator)

2. w32tm /resync

Try this time server: de.pool.ntp.org

If it does not work, you can always set the time manually, few seconds don't matter after all.
