How to show weekday in Windows 10 clock in taskbar?












9















In all windowses before 10 I could just pull the taskbar up and I could see which day it is:



enter image description here



But when doing that in Windows 10 it doesn't work:



enter image description here



How can I get my weekday back without having to hover over the clock?

  • You probably can't, not without a third-party app. I'm not sure how a single-click to the clock is more arduous than pulling up the taskbar; same number of clicks.

  • I keep the taskbar always this way :) Probably should've mentioned that, I mean I pull up the taskbar after each windows install :P

    Which version or build of Windows 10 is it? For some reason, I see the weekday on my clock. What if you pull the taskbar a little higher?

You can use https://github.com/White-Tiger/T-Clock for this, it provides many other options beside custom formats for the clock

The weekday will be shown on your horizontal taskbar when you either




  • Have Small Taskbar Icons enabled and the Taskbar is at least 3 rows high or

  • Have Small Taskbar Icons disabled and the Tasbar is at least 2 rows high


If you use the vertical taskbar




  • You need to have it at least 80 pixels wide @ 100% scaling


If you can't pull on your taskbar to resize it right-click it and uncheck Lock all taskbars

    You can change the date format of the short date in control panel -> change date, time, or number formats -> additional settings -> date. Set it to something like ddd d-M-yy will give you what you want

      I read this trick and it will "damage" other programs that rely on this date, like excel or word. eg insert time now will insert the current day too.

    Go to taskbar properties & UN-check "Use small taskbar button". When you use the small taskbar buttons there is not enough room for the date unless you increase the taskbar size.

      If you unlock the taskbar and make it a little bigger, it will show the day:



      Taller Taskbar



      To unlock the taskbar: click Start then the settings icon, go to Taskbar Settings:



      enter image description here



      And turn "Lock the Taskbar" off:

      • I know it may sound obvious to you, but for some users unlocking taskbar is not really straightforward. Do you mind just adding a quick guide on how would you go about unlocking the taskbar and moving taskbar to the right side? Add this info to your answer.

        – alljamin
        Mar 17 '17 at 1:22











      • @alljamin Sure. I added it. I deleted the part about moving the Taskbar to the side because it wasn't related, and it would just confuse the issue. But for reference: Once the Taskbar is unlocked, you can just grab the background of the taskbar with the mouse and drag it to any desktop edge, and it will stick there.

      This fix works, but does screw up usage of the short date format in other programs, such as Outlook, Word, Excel etc. These negative effects, however, are reduced (maybe even eliminated) if you put the "ddd" insert at the END of the short date format. I'm using "M/d/yyyy - ddd" and it doesn't seem to carryover into the other programs in the same way as when I put the "ddd" string at the beginning.

      • Go to: Control panel -> Clock and region -> Region

      • in Region 'Format' tab go to 'Additional settings'

      • in the date format box you can change short date. My format is : M/dd-ddd


      enter image description here



      enter image description here

        You have to change the format of the date in the control panel...
        With the Task bar set to double height>
        Control Panel>Clock, Language, and Region> Region>Change date, time or number formats....
        Select Additional Settings
        Select Date Tag
        in short date in "Date Formats" change it to dddd MMM dd, yyyy (Type it in Manually as it is not a selection choice)
        Select apply then ok this will close the Additional Setting window
        Select apply then ok this will close the Region Window



        Now you should see something like Monday Nov 30, 2015 on the bottom line with the Time above it.



        That's about the only way to do this without any additional third party apps



        This can change the format across the board in all your apps like Excel/Word and alike when you want to insert the date, it will insert the day as well. If this is not a problem then go ahead and use the steps, if not you will have to put up with no day being displayed... Entirely up to you

        Right click on the time. Adjust date/time. Change date and time formats. The short date format needs to be MM/dd/yy.

          That format does not include the weekday (and also uses the US order of month and day, which the OP is clearly not using)

                I read this trick and it will "damage" other programs that rely on this date, like excel or word. eg insert time now will insert the current day too.

                Go to taskbar properties & UN-check "Use small taskbar button". When you use the small taskbar buttons there is not enough room for the date unless you increase the taskbar size.

                        If you unlock the taskbar and make it a little bigger, it will show the day:



                        Taller Taskbar



                        To unlock the taskbar: click Start then the settings icon, go to Taskbar Settings:

                        • I know it may sound obvious to you, but for some users unlocking taskbar is not really straightforward. Do you mind just adding a quick guide on how would you go about unlocking the taskbar and moving taskbar to the right side? Add this info to your answer.

                        • @alljamin Sure. I added it. I deleted the part about moving the Taskbar to the side because it wasn't related, and it would just confuse the issue. But for reference: Once the Taskbar is unlocked, you can just grab the background of the taskbar with the mouse and drag it to any desktop edge, and it will stick there.

                        This fix works, but does screw up usage of the short date format in other programs, such as Outlook, Word, Excel etc. These negative effects, however, are reduced (maybe even eliminated) if you put the "ddd" insert at the END of the short date format. I'm using "M/d/yyyy - ddd" and it doesn't seem to carryover into the other programs in the same way as when I put the "ddd" string at the beginning.

                                You have to change the format of the date in the control panel...
                                With the Task bar set to double height>
                                Control Panel>Clock, Language, and Region> Region>Change date, time or number formats....
                                Select Additional Settings
                                Select Date Tag
                                in short date in "Date Formats" change it to dddd MMM dd, yyyy (Type it in Manually as it is not a selection choice)
                                Select apply then ok this will close the Additional Setting window
                                Select apply then ok this will close the Region Window



                                Now you should see something like Monday Nov 30, 2015 on the bottom line with the Time above it.



                                That's about the only way to do this without any additional third party apps



                                This can change the format across the board in all your apps like Excel/Word and alike when you want to insert the date, it will insert the day as well. If this is not a problem then go ahead and use the steps, if not you will have to put up with no day being displayed... Entirely up to you
