How to Show Clock On All Monitors in Windows 11

Want to Show Clock on all Monitors in Windows 11?

If yes then you are in the right place.

Some feature which I really liked about this new operating system is its new taskbar and the Start Menu.

Although, they have a very beautiful user interface but it still has some major issues to be fixed. ( Since it’s built from scratch )

But recently many users have reported that “Windows 11 only shows the clock on primary display“.

This means that if you are using multiple monitors on your PC, then you will not see any clock on both or secondary displays.

And the worst part is that there are no settings given for this. But you can still use a third-party app called ElevenClock to fix this issue.

So, without further ado, let’s get started…

What is ElevenClock?

What is ElevenClock

ElevenClock is a free utility that helps you to show the clock on the second monitor or screen. In simple terms, if you are using additional displays in extended mode then by using this app you can get the date & time back on all monitor’s taskbar in Windows 11. And the best part is that you also get some pretty amazing customization options.

Like, it supports both light mode & dark mode with different themes. Adding to it, you can also change the text color of the clock and can also hide it when in fullscreen mode. You can also change the position of the clock like at the bottom and left of the screen. Furthermore, this app only extends the taskbar and you can still use the notifications panel and calendar by clicking on it.

And you can get this application for free from Microsoft Store and Github. In my opinion, this is a must app for every user who uses multiple displays or monitors with Windows 11.

Get ElevenClock from Microsoft Store
