Why was this needed? Cant you do the same directly form windows?

Because although Windows has an automatic time synchronization feature to keep your computer’s clock accurate, unfortunately it is scheduled to only run once a week by default. If your Windows does not need run any time-sensitive job, it may not be a real problem. Otherwise, you will run into headache.

You may start the Windows time service on each boot by creating a scheduled task. Windows 10 actually does this automatically and will start the time service during boot. However, even if you do so, Windows 10 will actually sync the time on boot only if your system clock is off by more than a few hours. That is why there are some free tools, such as Dimension 4 or Neutron, that can help people to fix this problem properly.
