Windows clock regularly changes itself to a random (?) date/time
The problem:
The windows clock goes periodically out of sync.
I noticed this happening mostly when I restart the computer (though I have not been able to pin down the exact recurrence).
I tried a number of fixes, but what mostly strikes me as odd, and possibly indicative of the actual problem, is that if I manually change the clock to the real time, and I go for example to sites like time.is, the site tells me that my clock is out of sync.
If I use the internet sinchronization of windows the clock goes to a strange hour (for example now is 13:44, and internet sinchronization sets the clock at 22:47), but time.is tells me that my clock is right, even though it clearly isn't, and it gives an hour very different to that of the site.
Possible cause:
I admit I may have inadvertently caused this problem, as it appeared after a few days ago for a couple of reasons I messed around with registry keys related to the time.
In particular I changed the value of the registry key
for example adding a 2015 key that wasn't there and seemed to be required in the installation of Microsoft Office.Code:HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Time Zones\W. Europe Standard Time\Dynamic DST
I think I reverted the changes I made, but I may have missed something.
Some fixes that do not work:
I tried following the suggestions on this sevenforums post.
Unfortunately it doesn't work, here is the terminal's output:
