Rich,
You WANT to change what Windows does because a generation ago, to allow
their server software to function, they increased the error gap in the
NTP system. It allows WAY too much drift and they've never cleaned that
up (because most users don't care).
I use and suggest Meinberg; which can replace the Windows NTP service.
It's free and keeps my computers within .03 seconds to standard (on very
slow Internet) without requiring high overhead (it just works and well).

What is the sync time tolerance?
1 sec is OK, 2 sec will lose a lot of QSOs. I've used this free app for ten
years. Painless to install, runs in the background.

I think that I used to use that. It sure looks familiar. But I now use routines
that are already a part of Windows. I just change the time sync period from the
default of 1 week to 1 day. It could be set to hourly, and that would keep the
sync time (theoretically) below 0.5s. Not trying to sell Windows, but don't see
adding to what is already there.
