No clock showing on taskbar

from Stardock Forums

I have installed Start 11 on my Windows 11-PC (21H2). My taskbar does not shor the clock and in "settings" no point to enable it

Start11 does not provide the clock on your taskbar.  This is something painted by Windows itself.

Did you have a clock before you installed Start11?

Also did you perhaps install something to bring back the Windows 10 taskbar on Windows 11?

As far as I remember, I had it before installing Open Shell. Because of the clock problem, I deinstalled Open Shell and bought Your product. I can install elevenclock, but it puts itself in the reight or left corner where it displays over other icons, which is not usable

So you had a problem with the clock when using OpenShell?

If so the issue sounds unrelated to Start11 if it existed before Start11 was installed.

My best guess would be something has enabled an option in the OS to uncombine taskbar buttons.  That has serious side effects such as I believe a missing clock and would be the cause of the problem if so.

Thank You. Is there any way to find which "something" has acted so ??

I am afraid not.

If your clock is not working it might be worthwhile making a new user account which may well not have the problem.  If not a reinstall of Windows may be the right choice for you.
