Windows 10: Help with task bar customization on two monitors

Hey everyone, so I have this problem where I want to center my taskbar icons, but I can only do it on one monitor. I use the 'Links' technique and it works great, but only on one of my task bars. I want to know if anyone knows how I can access my 'toolbars' for my second monitor's task bar. This has been bugging me for a while and I can't seem to figure it out.

(Note: I want the same task bar with the same icons to display on both monitors but both centered on their respective displays)

Cannot modify Task Bar settings

Hi,

Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

I understand your concern and will be happy to assist you.

I suggest you to follow the steps below and check if the issue persists.

• Right click on the Task Bar.
• Uncheck the option " Lock the Taskbar."

Hope this helps.

 

More custom layout on Task Bar

I use to put the Task Bar on the left of the desktop and strech it wider to see program titles on Task Bar. With a wider Task Bar, it can save more vertical space for program positions with more custom layout.

(1) Custom date time. Now it is time then day of the week then date from top to bottom. With custom date time, we can display them in just one line to save vertical space.

(2) Embed the input method icon into the icon lists, now the single input method icon occupy a whole line.

(3) Grid instead of list for programs. For example, some program don't need its title to be displayed on the Task Bar such as Task Manager/Screen Shot Tool, for such program, with a wide Task Bar, we can put 2 instance per line, e.g. put Task Manager and
Screen Shot Tool on the same line. Even better we can configure this behavior for each program.

 

Clock, date and time missing from task bar

Can someone, please provide me with a answer to my question above? I tried all the suggestions. The suggestions containing steps, do not show up as described. For example: Click on an empty space on the task bar, click customized notifications, turn clock
on. None of this steps show up on the drop menue.
