Time Service At Microsoft Is Incorrect

June 13th, 2013 · No Comments

So for a few days I couldn’t figure out why the time on my Windows laptop was ahead by 4-5 minutes. I figured the time sync service/feature in control panel wasn’t working so I went to take a look there. Clicked update a few times to make sure it was working. Yup, its working but returning an incorrect time.

It is was to time.microsoft.com. I guess nobody at Microsoft pays attention to such things. You would think somebody would notice and fix. What kind of time service is this if it isn’t going to be correct.

I changed it to time.nist.gov and time is back to normal.
