Built-in Windows 7 World Clock Gadget

Surprise, surprise, you don’t even need to download a world clock gadget in Windows 7! Why? Because there’s already a world clock built-in! You can add up to two additional clocks to your taskbar (if you need more than two skip this part). Only if you need more than two clocks, because you are working with international teams on a large scale you need a world clock gadget for Windows 7.

So, click on the clock on your taskbar. At the bottom, click on the hyperlink “Change date and time settings”:

Go to the tab “Additional Clocks” and then add up to two clocks to your Windows 7 taskbar:

The time format is UTC (all modern UNIX systems are based on this time format). Because my most important time zones are Europe and India aside from the USA, I added India (UTC +5.30) and Germany (UTC +1.00). Central USA is UTC -6.00.

    This is what i was looking for! No need for any World Clock fancy gadget downloads – Win7 has it all built in.
    Thanks.

    Unfortunately, I unintentially uninstalled the Windows 7 clock. Is there any way of retrieving it or do I need to reinstall Windows 7?

    HAH – just found this – Very Cool. Shows I need to look around Win7 some more. Built in Windows 2 time zone clocks works perfect for me. My VA’s are all in the Philippines.

    On the Windows Desktop Gadgets though, Windows no longer supports 3rd party Gadgets. Now they are all about APPs for Windows 8.

    Thanks_mc
