The Time on my Domain controller is exactly exactly one hour ahead no matter what time zone I select. See screenshot below. How do I fix this?

    It is the PDC emulator

    So I would do a couple of things.
    Set the time zone as needed.
    then do;

    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.

    Looks like right now the zone is set to zulu or UTC time zone, is that correct?

    I ran these commands: i found from keeping-time-accurate-on-your-windows-domain

    net stop w32time
    w32tm /unregister
    w32tm /register
    w32tm /config /manualpeerlist:"0.de.pool.ntp.org,0x1 1.de.pool.ntp.org,0x1 2.de.pool.ntp.org,0x1 3.de.pool.ntp.org,0x1" /syncfromflags:manual /reliable:yes /update
    net start w32time
    w32tm /resync

    seems to have done the trick and time is now correct. Do i need to do anything else?
