Posted February 7, 2022 Hey guys so recently I had my pc blue screen and it made me have to do a clean installation of windows. For some reason after this I cannot change my time zone. It is permanently stuck to pacific time, making my time off from my actual time zone. I've gone into date and time in the additional time settings, but it keeps prompting me with a pop up that says I don't have permission to change this even though I am the administrator for the computer. How do I fix this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted February 7, 2022 could be an administrator privileges issue could also be a service problem or a registry entry issue so you can start by re-registering the "windows time" service. so we'll solve them both at the same time - in an elevated command prompt (type "cmd" into the search bar at the bottom and right click then click "run as administrator") - type " net user administrator /active:yes " and hit enter (this sets your account to admin) - type " w32tm /unregister " and hit enter (this unregisters the Windows Time service) - Hit Win+R and type services.msc - Find 'Windows Time' service and stop it by right clicking the service and clicking "stop" (this force stops the windows time program) - click back into CMD window and type " w32tm /register " and hit enter (this registers the windows time service and adds the windows default registry entries for it) - Start Windows Time Service again by right clicking and click start you should be able to change the time zone again if it doesn't automatically pick it up online The best gaming PC is the PC you like to game on, how you like to game on it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're referring to how much I spent on windows, I got it from Microsoft at full price, if that's not what you mean, idk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
