Some settings are managed by your organisation (unable to disable Set time automatically)

Question

_{Thursday, June 23, 2016 9:28 AM}

Hi,

We are on a domain and have upgraded from windows 7 to windows 10. A user needs to change their date (for accounts purposes), but it only stays changed for a short time before the date/time is set automatically.

We are unable to disable the setting "Set time automatically" (in settings->Time & Language-> Date & Time) as its greyed out and at the top of the screen it says Some settings are managed by your organisation

I've tried (on my laptop) editing group policy to allow users to change system time but this doesn't help.

I have tried creating registry [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\PushNotifications]
"NoToastApplicationNotification"=dword:00000000

but this has not helped.

Can you help me disable this setting?

Hi,

Please check the following group policy.

computer Configuration\ Windows Settings\ Security Settings\ Local Policy\ User Rights Assignment   > change the system time

Assign the users with the permissions.

Have you checked with the domain administrator, to see if the setting(s) have been blocked.
