It's time to talk about how to synchronize the time of Windows.Responsible for this is maykrosoftovskih operating system service called W32Time.
To configure it, you must make appropriate changes to the registry.The most commonly used parameters for the list of sources for the time, as well as the intervals of the timing, after which the appeal will be made to the source.
Time Sync Windows XP comes from only one source.Even if your list has a rich list, the system will use only one.Why do a large number of point sources?Everything is very simple.This is done to ensure that in the event of unavailability of the first, the system turned to the next on the list.
If the following problems occur, treatment will occur in the third, fourth and so on until, until the procedure is completed successfully.Time synchronization of Windows 7 comes on the same principle.
to the specified list of sources for synchronization using a special registry key.It looks as follows: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINES \ SYSTEMS \ CurrentControlSets \ Servicing \ W32Times \ Parameter \ NtpServers.The last value - is the key that divides spaces and is a list of time servers.It can be defined as a domain name, and by the Ai-pi address.Each of these servers can be specified hexadecimal values for flags to be specified, separated by commas.It is prescribed after each name server.
total there are four possible values of flags.First - 0x01.It called special intervals.Second - 0x02.Called "is used only as a backup."Third - 0x04.Called - symmetrically active.And finally, the fourth - 0x08.It is called the client.Time Sync Windows can only occur with these flags.
When you use the first one, you have to set the interval in the key, which is responsible for a given interval.By default, the system is set one week.Therefore, the Windows Time Synchronization occurs every 604800 seconds.If the accuracy of the system clock is low, this interval is too big.
Some devices observed error in a few minutes from the upgrade to upgrade.Therefore, it makes sense to reduce the interval so that the Windows Time synchronization performed in a few hours.This change does not significantly increase your traffic or load on the server.However, such an adjustment would allow to maintain fairly high accuracy performance of your watch on your computer.
When you make the necessary changes to your registry, confirm them, and then will need to restart your system.Thereafter, the refresh interval will be reduced to the measure that you have set for this purpose.
Now you can be a hundred percent sure that the clock on your desktop or laptop computer will display the correct time.Just want to warn you that you need to work with the registry very carefully and attentively.Not allowed any mistakes.Otherwise you risk to reinstall your operating system.
