    Might try

    w32tm /unregister
    net stop w32time
    w32tm /register
    net start w32time
    w32tm /config /manualpeerlist:<ntp ip address> /syncfromflags:manual /reliable:yes /update
    net stop w32time
    net start w32time
    then check
    w32tm /query /source
    w32tm /query /configuration

    many can be found here.

    Then it sounds badly broken. May need to transfer roles to another healthy one and stand up a new one for replacement.

    I don't know if it helps much, but I had the same problem even when I enter Windows 10 with my administrator account. When executing CMD, the following commands gave me an error:
    C:\Users\Florencio>w32tm /query /source
    Error: Access denied. (0x80070005)
    or
    C:\Users\Florencio>w32tm /query /configuration
    Error: Access denied. (0x80070005)
    but running cmd as administrator the above commands worked.
