How do I activate NTP Server and client in windows 7 OS?

Question

How would I synchronize client's PC date and time with a server using Network Time Protocol(NTP)?

Yes, there is. But this is not a programming question, so you will not find the answer here. — Cody Gray - on strike, Nov 30 '16 at 01:19
