    How to make taskbar clock show the time when open/expanded?


    Windows 11.So I have the clock widget on the right of my taskbar - shows the time and date. But when I click it, it expands/open to show the current month in a calendar format, and displays the date at the top - but not the time.As I have poor eyesight, and find the small text in the taskbar itself difficult to read, I would really appreciate the expanded widget showing the time as well. My old Windows 10 clock used to, and I found it very helpful.Can the Windows 11 clock be made to do this? I've tried searching online but can't find and answer.thanks

    :)

    Clock not showing in taskbar.

    Hi,

    I installed the free upgrade to windows 10 on my win 8.1 PC. However the taskbar is not functioning correctly. The pinned icons are about an inch or more apart and if the taskbar is a single line only edge show. And now only the edge icon is showing. The
    clock is present because the area for it is there, but nothing is displayed in thee notification area. the date and time appear in the tip when I hover my mouse over the date and time notification area and when I click on that area the calendar and time app
    shows up. but nothing is showing in the clock notification area.

    Thanks for your help.

    System Icons on taskbar

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting on Microsoft Communities.

    Are you referring to the clock system icon on the taskbar?

    If so, I suggest you to follow the steps mentioned below:


    • Click on the search bar on the taskbar.

    • Type system icons.

    • Under Turn System Icons ON or OFF, turn On the Clock and check with the issue.

    Hope it helps.
