The original error messages were:

A timeout was reached (30000 milliseconds) while waiting for the Network
Time Protocol Daemon service to connect.

followed by

The Network Time Protocol Daemon service failed to start due to the
following error:
The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely
fashion.

No other errors or warnings.

It's running now, the logs show synchronization and the only error is
regarding the ability to generate the .rnd file.

Thanks for that - although I'm no nearer to explaining the cause of the original problem.

In my configuration, the .RND file is created in:

  C:\Tools\NTP\etc

so most likely the problem was due to accepting the defaults (i.e. Program Files) in your first install. I recommend:

  C:\Tools\NTP

rather than:

  C:\Program Files\NTP

where C:\Tools is a completely open directory. The user typically needs to edit the ntp.conf file for their own servers and logging needs.
