Windows saying it's PM when it's AM [on hold]

In Windows 10, the clock is saying its 12:08 PM when it's 12:08 AM (noon).
The bios clock is 24 hour format as is correct (12:08).
I have the time zone set correctly (I'm in UK so its UTC+00:00).
I have automatic timezone and automatic time set to enabled.
I am not sure how to fix this without diving into the registry but I think I should probably fix it as it can confuse me and lead to system instability.
Any help would be appreciated.
edit: Maybe it is saying it is 12:00 PM because it is at least 1 minute past, however I could be wrong and it is still confusing to me

I think it's correct and you're confusing it. Noon is 12 o'clock so any time after it is PM.

You are confused but Wikipedia isn't: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noon . However, your confusion does not and can not translate to "system instability". If you have an issue please ask a specific question about it.

Well, it seems correct.
12:00 AM
is actually midnight, which goes up to 11:59 AM
(noon), then after one minute, it goes to 12:00 PM
(noon) till 11:59 PM
(just before midnight).
You can type in the command prompt:
time
which would give for example:
C:>time
The current time is: 13:29:57.30
Enter the new time:
1
It is easier to explain that the 12th hour is displayed as 0:00 on devices that use a 24h format, because time goes from 0:00 till 11:59. This also explains why 12:00 AM (or rather 0:00 AM) is midnight.
