How do I display 24 hour clock in my Task Bar?

[[1ponders]]

I've been trying without success to work out how to change the default window clock in the task bar from 12 hr am/pm clock to 24 hour clock.

Is this possible and if so how can I do it without carrying out major harikari (on me) secret, wink, nod, secret handshake programming changes.

unless there is a regedit profile command I would say you havent got a chance? Usually in the registery there are on off switched that can realy customise windows that are not a mouse click. but in your case you are lucky, i have had two bottles of wine and remember nothing so this is by the big toe. Go to start -then click control panel then select regional and language options and select advanced. Ok here is the kicker select the time tab, then select HH:mm:ss and your home and hosed!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Gee i am numb..........no viewing tonight

Not bad for a two bottler. The only thing you missed was click the "customize" button and not the "Advanced" tab. Otherwise everything is hunky dory. ;) :thumbsup:

In addition to the 24hr clock in the system tray (or "Notification Area" as I think they now call it), I have TClockEx (http://www.pcworld.com/downloads/file/fid,6122-order,1-page,1-c,icons/description.html) running on startup to provide the date as well. Highly configurable to the date/day/time format of your choice. I do believe it also has timezone capababilities built in, but I already have another clock (well, wristwatch actually) close to UTC.
