Question

The computer did not resync because no time data was available

d2o 21

Hi,
Somehow my Windows fail to sync time with the following error "The computer did not resync because no time data was available."
I have this issue on 2 different computers, where I've just formatted and reinstalled "Windows 10 Enterprise - MultipleActivation" iso from my Visual Studio Subscription.

C:\Windows\system32>net stop w32time

C:\Windows\system32>net start w32time
The Windows Time service is starting.
The Windows Time service was started successfully.


C:\Windows\system32>w32tm /config /update
The command completed successfully.

C:\Windows\system32>w32tm /resync /rediscover
Sending resync command to local computer
The computer did not resync because no time data was available.

Any idea?
Thank you

Do you check the CMOS clock? Is it the right date and time or wrong?

What time source are you trying to use? Might try a different one.

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

Hi DSPatrick, thank you for helping
Those commands worked through command line, however it still fails from Settings window

PS C:\Windows\system32> w32tm /unregister
W32Time successfully unregistered.
PS C:\Windows\system32> net stop w32time
The Windows Time service is stopping.The service name is invalid.

More help is available by typing NET HELPMSG 2185.

PS C:\Windows\system32> w32tm /register
W32Time successfully registered.
PS C:\Windows\system32> net start w32time
The Windows Time service is starting.
The Windows Time service was started successfully.

PS C:\Windows\system32> w32tm /config /manualpeerlist:129.6.15.28 /syncfromflags:manual /reliable:yes /update
The command completed successfully.

After this line
w32tm /config /manualpeerlist:129.6.15.28 /syncfromflags:manual /reliable:yes /update

you must restart the time service.

net stop w32time
net start w32time

Might try a different time source. Also check with your ISP as some block UDP port 123

I've reran the commands using 132.163.97.1 this time, the commands works well, however still fails using the UI.
I doubt my ISP is blocking this port if I can synchronize using command line, but not when Windows Time. Unless they are using different ports?
