I had this problem when I got my computer.  I tried the above first, but that failed.  Try clicking on the time in the lower right corner of your screen; a window should pop up and you should be able to set the correct time there.

    date and time wrong on my laptop.  time.nist.gov does not work to fix it

    Hi

    I've had this problem from day one on my desktop W8 &W9 &W10. 

    My fix is to set NetTIME to run every hour & to resync with internet clock. No a perfect solution but it works. Microsoft seem totally disinterested in fixing this.

    I took the cmos battery out and replaced it and didn't have a problem after that.
