Step 1
Connect the internet to keep the connection active. Next, you need to go to the time settings in the operating system. Click on the clock with the left mouse button - it is usually in the lower right corner. At the bottom of the calendar that appears, click on the line "Change date and time settings."
Step 2
In the "Date and Time" window, go to the "Internet Time" tab. If your computer has already been synchronized, at the top of the window you will see the inscription "The computer is configured to automatically synchronize with … (server name)". If this inscription is absent, click the "Change parameters" button.

If you don't have constant internet access, don't be discouraged. The operating system will connect to the time server and update the data every time an internet connection is available. In general, we can say that synchronizing time with the Internet is not difficult, the main thing is that there is an active connection to the Internet.

There are also sites on the Internet that automatically synchronize the time with your computer, but for this you will need to enable access to automatically exchange data. Go to the exact time website https://www.direct-time.ru/. Click on the "Compare time" button. If the time does not match yours, click on the "Synchronize" tab. Then the time will be automatically updated on your computer.
