Date and time shown in System Tray/Taskbar are of last restart time and not updating automatically. This is even though Date and Time are correct in the settings and set to automatically update within the system tray. How do I fix this? Thank you!

    Do you have any window's updates that have not been processed ?

    Thank you very much Larryodie for solving my problem! I just checked for Windows updates and there were indeed 2 waiting as I'd forgotten to enable automatic updates on this new PC. Since they've run, the time is updating automatically so it looks like this is now fixed.

    Hi Redders

    Press the Windows Key + S keys and type in Date and click on Date & Time. You can also go to Settings or the Control Panel. Set time automatically and Adjust for daylight savings time automatically should both be on.

    To do this, go to "Settings" > "Time & Language" > "Date & Time". Make sure that "Set time automatically" is turned on, and that the correct time server is selected.

    Also Check the CMOS battery on your Aspire TC-1785, it should be changed once in a year if the date/time is shown wrongly.
