time on multiple displays

so, new computer, windows 8...

using multiple displays, windows has finnaly included the taskbar on multiple displays!

but, the single most important thing that could have been on it, is not.

the time.


multi screen, used by who?

mostly gamers.

when you run a game full screen on one computer and have the second screen for something else.

when in game, games typically don't have the real world time.

look over to my second screen, hahaha, no time.

now, im asking:

if it is possible, how do i turn on the time on my second screen?

i am talking about the bottom right corner, where it says:

"8:16 pm"

"2014-12-10"

Hi inverno4661.

Thanks for the post! You’re not alone with this question, see the thread below. Unfortunately without 3rd party software there currently appears to be no way to add the time to both notification / task bars.

A solution that may work for you though would be to right click > unlock the bar from your primary screen and drag it to the second.

Thanks,

thank you very much!

it's sad that there is no solution to this issue, but the temporary fix works fine!
