I´ve just installed a Domain Controller, now I want to configure Time sync But It´s greyed out Im logged with an account that is both Enterprise Admin and Domain Admin. Login as local Administrator account (that account I used when created the DC) seems not to work. No local user or local group under computer management. Really appreciate your answer Please see screenshot.

Also try from Server Manager. --please don't forget to upvote and Accept as answer if the reply is helpful--

@Dave Patrick, yes that's possible, but I still cant syncronize clock manually.

If this is the PDC emulator you can run

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 REM then check w32tm /query /source w32tm /query /configuration

Some internet NTP sources can be found here

Thank you. I didn't even know you could change it from SM. However, this is still a broken feature until you DON'T have the option grayed out for an administrator. The message that some settings are hidden or managed by your organization doesn't pan out when it's a fresh domain install with nothing yet configured.

This answer doesn't answer the question above. After a reboot time resets. Need to activate NTP. Dave Patrick has the right answer. See his script above. Most helpful. Thank you
