I am trying to create a Group Policy for Time Services. The instructions I'm following say to create a new group policy (done) then open the new policy with the GPO Management Editor, then navigate to: Computer Configuration → Policies → Administrative Templates → System → Windows Time Service → Time Providers.

I'm stuck at this point because I do have "Administrative Templates", but there is no "System".

How can I get this policy sub-level?

Windows for home | Windows 10 | Settings

    Anderson. Thanks, that's what I needed. I had previously only downloaded the Admin Templates for Office, which is why I was missing System. I downloaded and Installed the Admin Templates on an admin workstation from https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/101445, then copied the files installed in "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Group Policy\Windows 10 May Update (2004)\ Policy Definitions" to "\myadserver\sysvol\mydom\policies\PolicyDefinitions.

    After doing that I was able to navigate to Computer Configuration → Policies → Administrative Templates → System → Windows Time Service → Time Providers, and complete the policy configuration.

    Thanks
