Windows 10: Displaying Date on Taskbar

I just wanted to correct some information that independent and microsoft employees are advising on the solution to this problem. There is not just two ways to display the date on taskbar. Assuming you are using the taskbar either on the top or bottom of your screen, if you actually move the taskbar to the left or right, the time AND DATE automatically are displayed. this drives me nuts but i now dont mind having my taskbar to the side and it actually is easier to see everything you want without it looking cramped or too small. Hope this helps those like me that need to have the date displayed,

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.

 

Display Date in Taskbar


I know that the date normally doesn't display in your Taskbar when you have a Taskbar pin to the right or left of your screen (best place to put it for doesn't eat up vertical screen space on wide screens). I know that you can get it to display by widening your Taskbar but again that defeats the purpose of putting your Taskbar on the right or left. I modified the format of the date by using the control panel so the date was displayed as d/m to make it narrower. That worked but it still only displays if I widen the Taskbar. Since the date is now narrower than the time I don't understand why it won't display in the narrow Taskbar? Has anybody else seen this problem and come up with a way to solve it?
