Adjust Date/Time

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.general (More info?)

I click Adjust Date/Time but Date and Time Properties dialogue does not
launch. I have done Spyware scan, checkdsk, sfc /scannow and virus
scan. System Restore failed using any restore point available. My last
resort at this point would be repair install of WXP. Is there any other
thing I should try before doing this?

Hi,

If you are running XP Pro:

a. Start/Run/gpedit.msc
b. Computer Configuration/Windows Settings/Security
Settings/Local Polices/User Rights Assignment".
c. Highlight User Rights Assignment
d. On the right pane, double click Change system time
e. Remove the account you want.
