Well knowing how MS is slowly killing the desktop UI, it really wouldn't surprise me if they just removed it altogether. Try copying timedate.cpl and timedate.cpl.mui from Windows 7 and see if you can get that to work.

i dont have win7 files
Edit: Also closing task Scheduler service cause taskbar corruption in win10 anniversary what they changed has something to do with the clock cause disable that useless service and instant taskbar crash and long logons

Well shoot, I should get a Win10 VM running so I can test stuff myself. In the meantime, if you need any Win7 files, just ask.

Ok, what's your system locale? For example, for me it's en-US (English, United States).

okay tried them it wont work they dont start up , reactosfiles for next try? edit ah yes no 64bit reactos ... Somebody should add a popup to the timedate.cpl but i think the clock on the taskbar might be triggered by other files

So you can get the old clock back now? yes startisback has the win7 clock nowadays u need this reg for it to work www.thewindowsclub.com/enable-old-windows-clock-calendar-windows-10 if u add it to your taskbar i see 3 ways Try to force enable the reg as true in your program , ask the dev how he did it or hexedit startisback see how it ticks with that thing . maybe even processhacker to see the what makes it launch. |

I've tried looking into the sib assembly, though I suck at assembly so I can't really understand it. I did find the place where it opens the clock though so I'll keep hitting my head against the table for now.

I now know. It detects if the registry key is enabled. If it is, it subclasses a new window with class "ClockFlyoutWindow" and shows it. If anyone knows how to hook into explorer you could do this easily.

If anyone knows how to hook into explorer you could do this easily. hook it to your taskbar it is kinda hooked to startisback i guess. And startisback + classic3 theme are basically a good thing to copy for your taskbar maybe make it load the theme but allow it to use system colors instead of theme colors .... |
