    Can't change date and time


    When i press the "Change date and time", an error occurs.

    it says: " Unable to continue. You do not have permission to perform this task. Please contact your computer administrator for help."

    im sure that i'm the admin of my pc. i can change the time settings before, but I can't now. The time is 1 hour advance.

    Hope somebody can help. Thanks.

    Does it sync the time on the internet by itself?

    Have you selected the correct time zone for your location. 1 hour off could be Daylight savings time setting ?

    Time - Current time around the World and standard time zones map of the world- 12 format

    Can you boot into SAFE mode & see if you can change it there ?
