How can you expect people to upgrade from Windows 10 to 11 if you can't even program your task bar properly, Microsoft?

    I hate what they did with the clock.

    For one, on 10 you could click it to display seconds when needed. No longer an option on 11, clicking only shows the calendar. You have to enable seconds in the taskbar itself, which 11 warns you will increase power usage.

    Secondly, it’s literally only clickable now on the primary monitor.

    Just a basic feature made significantly worse for no reason except to be different.

        It’s dumb that this feature has to be modded back in. Which means Microsoft can break it at any time, which would just piss me off more.

    I’ve had some weird bugs with the taskbar, but this is a new one! I can only imagine how annoying it would be for this to happen

    Another weird bug: on your secondary monitor you can hover your mouse over where the clock, notifications, and show desktop button would be, and hover markers appear but are unclickable. It’s been like this since windows 11 released
