In the age of computers and mobile phones, we look at wristwatches less and less. We have replaced them with electronic ones in our technology. What if the technique fails and shows the wrong time? To do this, you need to synchronize the time with the server, and then you will know exactly what time it is.

Instructions
Step 1
Synchronize the internal time server with the external one. Click the "Start" button, select "Programs" then - "Standard" - "Command Prompt". Enter the command w32tm / config / syncfromflags: manual / manualpeerlist: list, instead of a list, enter a comma-separated list of time source names or addresses and press enter. For example, you can enter the address of the synchronization server ntp.mobatime.ru. Next enter w32tm / config / update and press Enter.

Correct this value to what you need, for example, change the figure to 600, and then the time will be updated every ten minutes.
Step 3
Follow the steps below to set up time update. Create a text file using notepad and write the "net time" command there.
