How to Display Day of the Week on Windows 10 Taskbar [Tutorial]
Very recently, while using a Mac, I noticed that macOS (Catalina) displays day of the week on the menu bar in addition to the clock. Windows 10, on the other hand, displays date and time on the taskbar. With default settings, Windows 10 does not display day of the week on the taskbar.
If you like, you can configure Windows 10 taskbar to display the day of the week. This can be done by fine grain tuning of the date format, so it will become visible in the date area of the notification tray (the right bottom corner).
Everybody that has ever used a computer has seen the clock in the Taskbar, but did you realize that you can customize what is displayed? So instead of hovering your mouse to see the day of the week, you can make it be there by default.
You could also use this trick to do something silly like put your name into the taskbar clock, or leave a funny prank message for your friends, but today we’re just going to show you how to use it in a more useful way.
Note: you should know that Windows uses this field in various other ways, so if you put something weird in there, it might accidentally get set as your date format in an outgoing email or something. Don’t be stupid with it. And according to our readers, this will also break Quicken in various ways.
If you often get confused about day of the week, you can configure the Windows 10 to display the day of the week besides the date and clock.
