    Date and Time in Black on Taskbar


    Just installed Windows 10 (reinstall via Cloud). Dell Inspiron 3670. Font for date and time appear in black on taskbar. I read the instructions for someone named Wulff on a different thread. Does not work for me. Suggestions for System Maintenance don't work because I don't see the options listed in that thread. Yes, I installed a custom desktop and taskbar color (brown and nearly black), but had exact same colors before with no problems. Previous reinstalls were via factory settings, which I do not want to do again because they came with their own set of problems.


    BTW, I see that Wulff's post appeared on Dec 4, which indicates this is very new problem.


    Windows seems to be never-ending problems, which is why have reinstalled 3 times since setting up computer last week.


    Do not want blue taskbar. Hurts my eyes. Thanks./

    :)

  2. Display Time and Date on Task Bar?

    We appreciate the information you've provided Richard. We would like to ask, does it happen when you use a different user profile on your computer?

    We suggest that you check the date and time formats set on your computer. Here are the steps:

    • Open Settings.
    • Click on Time & language.
    • Click on Date & time.
    • Under format, click the Change date and time formats link.
    • Use the Short name drop-down menu to select the date format you want to see in the Taskbar.
    • Use the Short time drop-down menu to select the time format you want to see along with the date.
    • Close Settings.

    After these steps, see if the date will appear on the Taskbar.

    We are eager on getting this resolved for you, we will wait for your feedback.

    Day and date gone from taskbar

    Hello,

    To assist you better, you might have opted to have the small buttons on the taskbar from its properties. If you uncheck the option to have small buttons on the taskbar, then that would increase the taskbar size and will display the date with the time on the
    notification area on the taskbar.

    You may follow these steps:

    • Right click on the Taskbar and select Properties.
    • On the Taskbar tab, uncheck the option “Use small Taskbar
      buttons”.
    • Click on Apply and then OK.
    • Now check if that display the date with the time on the notification area.

    Let us know how it goes.

    Regards.
