If you just need to resync windows time, open an elevated command prompt and type:

w32tm /resync

C:\WINDOWS\system32>w32tm /resync

The command completed successfully.

Answer 4

While the w32tm /resync in theory does the job, it only does so under certain conditions. When "down to the millisecond" matters, however, I found that Windows wouldn't actually make the adjustment; as if "oh, I'm off by 2.5 seconds, close enough bro, nothing to see or do here".

In order to truly force the resync (Windows 7):

1. Control Panel -> Date and Time
2. "Change date and time..." (requires Admin privileges)
3. Add or Subtract a few minutes (I used -5 minutes)
4. Run "cmd.exe" as administrator
5. w32tm /resync
6. Visually check that the seconds in the "Date and Time" control panel are ticking at the same time as your authoritative clock(s). (I used watch -n 0.1 date on a Linux machine on the network that I had SSH'd over into)

--- Rapid Method ---

1. Run "cmd.exe" as administrator
2. net start w32time (Time Service must be running)
3. time 8 (where 8 may be replaced by any 'hour' value, presumably 0-23)
4. w32tm /resync
5. Jump to 3, as needed.
