We have Windows 10 Pro, after joining them to the Domain the option "Set time automatically" is grayed out. I done googling but there is no way to enable it. I need this option enabled, how can I do it ? Tried computer Configuration\ Windows Settings\ Security Settings\ Local Policy\ User Rights Assignment, but this also does not enable the option. I have run out of ideas.
If possible can it be set to off using a registry key or any method?
Is it possible to increase the synchronization polling interval to 2-3 hours?
