The clock in your Windows computer can be configured to sync with an Internet time server, which can be useful as it ensures your clock stays accurate. In cases where your date or time keeps changing from what you've previously set it to, it is likely that your computer is syncing with a time server. For example, if you like having the clock on your business computer set a bit ahead, the time changing without your knowledge could make you late for a meeting. To prevent it from changing, disable time syncing.
