Windows 10: Show long date format in taskbar in Windows 11

It seems to only show the short day format, how do I show the long day format?

Long Date Not showing in Taskbar

Using the setting you have described in settings Language - Date and time number format - Additional settings - Date - and using the short date the same as the long _ dddd dd MMMM yyyy



Works fine until you get to Wednesday. Both my machines do this.

 

Long Date Not showing in Taskbar

I was on the Business Model for updates and put them on hold for a week, but changed that to force the current update. Hopefully when the few updates are completed that will fix it for me too. But for me right now, there is no way to get it to display under Windows, no matter what I changed. I don't have "Properties" listed in the context menu, but I do have "Taskbar settings", and from there I could dig to most settings for time/date formats. However the one setting that wasn't anywhere is whether to display the long or short date/time formats. There were options how you preferred each of them, but not a place to select which to show in the system tray.

But in reading this thread I found reference to T-Clock Redux, which you can download here, and that worked perfectly. In fact it's so small and works so well, has so many more options for display and built-in functions, that I just might keep using it instead of the Windows clock.

I'll update this post when Windows is done installing its update if that did indeed fix it for me.

It's in the Control Panel > Language > Change date, time or number formats. Then click the 'Additional settings...' button to customize the formats.
