I use the free Meinberg NTP build on Windows 10.

https://www.meinbergglobal.com/english/sw/ntp.htm

It disables the windows time service and runs as a service, plus there is a
cool monitor you can download too.  This full ntp implementation will
discipline your clock and allow you to select your ntp servers.  By far
this NTP time sync service will keep your clock synchronized better than
anything else even if not connected to the internet.  It will determine the
drift of your clock in PPM and continually tweak it via PLL logic to keep
it in check.

I also run a stratum 1 NTP server you can use if you like when you install
the Meinberg build of NTP: time.nc7j.com
