internet time sync in pc date and time settings fails with error

jraju · Jan 23, 2022

Hi, Should I bother up, its sync. But I do not seem to fix it, as it gives an error occurred while was synchronizing with time.google.com. The operation returned because the time expired error.
Why this occurs and what is the fix for it.
I tried sfc scannow, which does not show any integrity problem.
I have configured my ntp server as time.google.com
I have tried all sorts of trouble shooting including stopping w32 tm etc.
But I get error.

You can reset the Windows Time service configurations using Command Prompt.

Open the Command Prompt by typing cmd.exe into Start Menu, right-click on Cmd.exe, and open it as an administrator.

Execute bellow commands one at a time:

Code:

net stop w32time


w32tm /unregister


w32tm /register


net start w32time


w32tm /resync /nowait

Once you completed the steps, your device should now synchronize with its clock over the internet.

When I execute the unregister command, i get access denied alert with error code 0x80070005. pl. advise.

Error code 0x80070005 means Access denied and it usually occurs because of lack of permissions. If you're on standard user account, check if the issue persists with administrator account. Or you may try creating new user account and check.

I checked my user account. It has administrator privileges. But still I am getting the error

Enable Administrator account and try the commands from Administrator account.

1. Open the Command Prompt by typing cmd.exe into Start Menu, right-click on Cmd.exe, and open it as an administrator.

2. Execute following command:

Code:

Net user administrator /active:yes

The above command will enable build-in Administrator account. From now on, the Administrator account will appear on the Welcome screen. Use it like any other account.

If you want to disable the account and hide it, enter this command at an elevated Command Prompt:

Code:

Net user administrator /active:no

when I log on to the admn built in , I find that windows time service is missing in services.msc and hence get invalid service name

jraju · Jan 24, 2022

Oh, I registered the time service and executed the command. Of course, I could go and see the successful sync on the tab. But, clicking update now, gives this error. How do I fix it

jraju · Jan 24, 2022

I get access denied even in admin built in logon. I think that there is a real big bug in the service. The service some times gone missing and I have to register it again and again. give me a lasting solution

What happens when you try to synchronize with a time.windows.com server?

jraju · Jan 24, 2022

My point is simple. Your fix is working when I execute in admin cmd prompt. But when I click update again, it was working previously by successfully syncing the internet time, whenever you click update now. Now It pops up the error , like I enclosed.
How it was working previously without any issue, now pops up timed out errors.
