Windows 10 Date Format Reverting to Default

Question

The formatting of the date of my OS continually reverts back to the regional standard. It will stay for somewhere between 5 minutes to 2 hours (long enough for me to miss it when it changes back). This is particularly annoying because all of the date stamps in MS Office inherit the OS format. This is a company computer that is under Group Policy administration. as such I do not have admin rights. If this is an issue caused by my group policy,

How do I isolate the cause of this reversion? Then, how do I stop this reversion?

If this is caused by the Group Policy administrations how do I identify that cause and effect, and what changes need to be made to stop it?

If this can be solved through admin rights, what explicitly should I request to my IT to change as an admin to stop this reversion?

Hi!

I'll try to help you.

This is likely because of a definition by your company's IT staff. Try asking them if there is such a limitation.

All best!
