Weird Windows 10 time issue.

iRileyx

Since doing a fresh install of W10 about 1-2 months ago, i've been having this weird time/date issue.

For some reason the time and date doesn't seem to carry on counting when the PC is turned off. That might not make much sense, but basically say i turn my PC off at 20:00 on the 16/07/2017, when i turn it back on the next morning, it'll only be at 20:01 16/07/2017). 

I have the date and time set to auto and it doesn't seem to work, i have to turn auto off and on for the time to update every time i turn the PC on. Also tested it with auto time turned off and it still does the same thing.

 

Just seems like a very weird issue, not much of a big one, but i can go days without using my PC and sometimes it's the first time i'll see in a day, so waking up at 8am in the morning and seeing the time as the middle of the afternoon for example, can cause a bit of a panic lol.

I don't think so, it only started after doing a fresh W10 install.

 

Would be very weird if the battery just happened to die at the same time haha.

Change the BIOS battery, see if that helps. Haven't seen it that bad before, mine has the tendency to be an hour behind until I toggle off/on auto time... I think mine is related to summer time though, specifically time savings. I don't have the issue in linux, so think it's a windows bug woth updating summer time savings times.

Please quote my post, or put @paddy-stone if you want me to respond to you.
