Default Date and Time Properties

windows xp home
sp2

When I touch the time with my cursor (on the right side of my toolbar) it
doesn't show the date. I can double click it and it will still bring the
date and time properties up. Is there a way to set it up so it will show
the date without clicking on it? Appreciate any response.. thank Rainy

Default Re: Date and Time Properties

Hello,

By default, it should be showing the date. Perhaps your mouse isn't still
enough? Do tool tips show on other programs when you hover your mouse over
them?

Or the box could be hiding behind the task bar. A workaround is to hover
your mouse over the Start button and then to the system tray. But this
sometimes doesn't work. Microsoft recommends logging off or restarting the
PC to fix this problem.
