So, like, about a month ago, Microsoft went and messed with the taskbar calendar in Windows 10. They decided to take out the clock from the flyout menu, which really ticked off a bunch of long-time users who relied on it. I mean, who does that, right?
The reason they gave for this crazy change was to get rid of the seconds display. Apparently, having the seconds on there was using up extra processing power and slowing things down. They said it was stopping the PC from going into power-saving mode and causing performance issues. Before the update, the time was showing down to the second, but nope, they had to go and mess with it.
But hey, good news for all the clock lovers out there! Microsoft has decided to bring back the seconds display with the next update for Windows 10. This update is known as Windows 10 22H2 Build 19045.5912, or KB5058481 for short. It’s already available to Windows Insiders in the Release Preview Channel and should be rolling out to everyone else soon. So, you can all relax now, your precious seconds are coming back.
Not really sure why this matters, but this article was originally in Swedish and got translated for PC users. Anyway, the clock is making a comeback, so all you clock-watchers can rejoice. Who knew such a small thing could cause such a stir, right? Well, there you have it. Windows 10 users can soon enjoy watching the seconds tick by once again.
