Windows 10: How can I get 24 hour time on Windows 11 Pro

Fresh install of Windows 111. Where is the setting to change the clock from AM / PM to 24 hour time?e.g. I want the clock to display "1600", not 4:00 pm.2. How do I uninstall Cortana?3. How do I remove "Bing" as a search option?4. Why did you install MS Teams when I never asked for it?

Windows 10. 12 to 24 hours

Hi Sandra,

Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

To change the time format from 12 hour to 24 hour in Windows 10.

Follow the steps:

• Navigate to Control panel.
• In the category view of the control panel, click on the
  ‘Change date, time, or number formats’.
• Change the short time to HH:mm from the drop down.
• Press Apply to make the changes.
• Now your time format will change to 24 hour format.

Hope this helps, let us know if you need further assistance.

 

24 hour clock

The bug riddled Windows 11 cannot seem to even support a 24 hour clock. While civilians use the AM/PM the military uses 24 hour time. Windows 11 cannot so this so its time to stuff it in the stockade.

 

changing the clock to 24 hour mode on desktop

Many thanks & it has worked for the time setting on the task bar but the time that appears on the desktop when the laptop is switched on ie. before you activate your pin access, still remains in 12 hour format.
