How To Fix Time Synchronization Failed Error in Windows 11 or 10 Problem Solved

How to fix the "Time synchronization failed" error in Windows 11 or 10 without restarting your computer

The "Time synchronization failed" error in Windows 11 or 10 can be caused by a number of factors, including problems with the Windows Time service, an overloaded time server, or an issue with your internet connection.

If you are experiencing this error, there are a few things you can try to fix it without restarting your computer:

1. Check your internet connection. Make sure that you are connected to the internet and that your internet connection is stable.
2. Change the time server. Windows 11 and 10 by default syncs with Microsoft's time server at time.windows.com. If this server is overloaded or unavailable, you can try switching to a different time server, such as time.google.com or time.nist.gov. To do this, open the Control Panel and go to Date and Time. Click on the Internet Time tab and then click on Change settings. In the drop-down menu, select the time server you want to use and then click on Update now.
3. Restart the Windows Time service. To do this, press Windows + R to open the Run dialog box. Type services.msc and press Enter. In the Services window, scroll down and find the Windows Time service. Right-click on the service and select Restart.
4. Run the SFC scan. The System File Checker (SFC) scan can help to identify and repair corrupt system files, which may be causing the time synchronization error. To run the SFC scan, press Windows + R to open the Run dialog box. Type cmd and press Enter. In the Command Prompt window, type the following command:

sfc /scannow

Press Enter and wait for the scan to complete.

5. Disable any VPNs or proxies. If you are using a VPN or proxy server, try disabling it temporarily to see if that fixes the error.

If you have tried all of the above steps and you are still experiencing the error, you may need to restart your computer. However, in most cases, you should be able to fix the error without having to restart.
