How do I change the clock on my computer?

hardpressed

For some unknown reason the clock on the computer is slow, it used to be about 10 mins fast, can someone tell a complete duffer how to set it to the right time please?

Depending on which type of computer (PC/Mac) you have, right click on the time in your bottom bar, then click on " adjust time/date " alter setting as required.

click on clock, internet time, update now.

The Windows default is to update the PC clock via a NTP internet server on a weekly basis. You should not need to update more often than this.

If the time on your PC is wrong after you have just powered it on, it is probable that the CMOS battery is not maintaining the time correctly when the PC is off, and so this CMOS battery needs replacing. On a PC this is (fairly) easy; on a laptop it may require taking the laptop apart,,,

As John said, probably need a new battery
