2. Change date and time Windows 10 CMD

The date and time are essential parts of Windows 10 since they not only keep us up to date on our tasks, but many services and applications depend on them for their execution, therefore a wrongly configured date and time can cause synchronization problems or application settings..

 

The Windows 10 date and time are important to keep the computer synchronized with the system tools and thus avoid possible failures. We can either have an automatic date and time configured or modify it manually if we need it. From the command prompt it is possible to manually modify these values ​​and if you do not know how to use them TechnoWikis will explain how to do it in Windows 10.
