do NOT trust Windows to set time accurately (and only once a day too).
They've mangled NTP so badly that it has a five minute accuracy
window... if you want your computer to be accurate, replace the MS
client with Meinburg. Mine stays within a few milliseconds now, easily
close enough for ham tasks.

Correct. There are various automated schemes for making sure that the
computer clock is accurate; some have been discussed on this forum in the
past. With Windows 8 and later you can sync manually with government time
standards by clicking on the time in the lower right of the taskbar and
working through the menus.
