Windows 10: Change Font colour display for time and date zone in windows 10 taskbar

After a recent update, while there still is an active zone in my taskbar for date and time, it is the same colour as the background for the taskbar. Hence it is not visible due to the lack of colour contrast. When I hover over the zone with a mouse, it displays a light coloured box with the correct time and date in black font colour.

I have small format icons and the others are displayed in white or colour

Help with Date+Time in taskbar


Hello all

i would like to have Date+Time displayed in the taskbar (i know that i can use large font,resize taskbar etc etc and dont want to use those solutions or any other 3rd party app just to be clear)

On my windows 7 i could achieve this by using Windows Styles builder then open the relevant theme end edit the required resource (namely Clock Font from size 11 i think, down to 9 or 8) and thus i could see both the time and the date without using large fonts or resizing the taskbar.

Tried the same method with windows 10 Pro X64 A.U this method appears not to work anymore.

any suggestions are welcome

Hi guys,

I have another question for you: can I change the font colour on my home display? Now the font it's black, but I want it a little bit lighter. can I do that? I only want to change the font colour on the home display, not for all the fonts.

thanks, marco
