    Yes it worked for me too, just follow exactly in order

    OPEN REGEDIT
    Hkey_Current_User\ControlPanel\International

    Double click on "sShortTime"
    THEN....
    Open up Character Map, switch to unicode and SEARCH for "colon"

    SELECT the last one that shows up (U+A789: Modifier Letter Colon)

    SELECT COPY and then replace the colon in the sShortTime string.

    ALL DONE!

    threevolve--i used your method and, yes, there is colon now, but that is all--the numbers have disappeared... i replaced the entire value with the colon. was that a mistake?

    Win 10 Pro Creators update taskbar clock anomaly - any suggestions?

    EDIT (didn't see option to edit OP--sorry)
    i was able to restore the numbers, but the square is back.
    again, was replacing the string value with the specified colon incorrect?
    i tried to use the description of the colon as well--and ended up with that where the clock should be.
    thanks!
