I'm having a problem with my PC where it doesn't automatically sync the date and time anymore. It all started after I replaced the power supply. Previously, my PC would randomly turn off, especially when someone else turned on the TV, and I realized the PSU was the issue. After replacing it, I noticed that whenever I turn on my PC, the date and time are wrong, which prevents me from connecting to the internet. I usually just hit the 'sync now' button, but now it keeps loading indefinitely without syncing. I've tried everything from command prompt commands to changing the time server settings and restarting the time service, but nothing seems to help. Any suggestions? Thanks!

You should start by replacing the CMOS battery on your motherboard. It often fixes issues with incorrect time after rebooting. If you’re still having trouble with Windows’ w32time service, consider using a small app called NetTime from timesynctool.com. It runs in the background and syncs your system clock with various NTP servers you can set up.
I replaced the CMOS battery and installed NetTime, but it still won't sync. Plus, I can't connect to the internet even with an Ethernet cable.
