    Taskbar clock, change date format.


    I wanted to change my Win10 taskbar clock to display DDD M D..It is not in the list of format options. I can't type a custom format. .The annoying part is I know I had it set that way on my old Win 10 computer. It seems this is just another dis"improvment" from MS taking away user control..Can anyone suggest a way I can beat windows into submission to do what I want.

    :)

    Clock and date on Taskbar missing

    My clock and date disappeared from the taskbar in windows 10. After trying various suggestions, none of which worked, but this did work for me:

    Right click on an empty space on the taskbar,

    Click settings

    In the option "Move Taskbar" move it to right or top of the screen and the clock reappears, when I returned the taskbar back to the bottom, the clock and date was still visible.

    Obviously a Microsoft Glitch, in the windows 10 Anniversary update. I haven't restarted my PC since, so will be interesting to see if the clock remains there.

    Fix clock display format

    the day of the week will be displayed if you make the taskbar slightly larger

    right click on taskbar, make sure the 'lock all taskbars' is not ticked. then drag the top of the taskbar upwards.

    to change the date layout

    settings -> Time & Language -> Date & Time -> formats, look for the 'change date and time formats' link

    also check that your Region & Language settings are correct.

    the calendar can be found in the all apps list, right click on it and pin to start, to put the tile back.

    what do you mean by

    similar to what the system tray clock calendar does when it "faults".?

    what happens when the clock faults?

    taskbar clock/date long format in windows 10

    ANNOYING - trying to write this post and get answers for Windows 8. Windows 10 is a different beast.

    WINDOWS 10 - taskbar clock and date are visible only in SHORT format. There is no option to choose long format that I can find. All searches come up with Windows 8 answers because they are the same for Windows 10 - NOT. Is there a way to change to long format?
    Or is this another case of Microsoft knows best?
