From the earliest versions of Windows, the The task bar has always been with us.. A task bar where all the applications that we have open are shown along with the different devices that we have connected at that moment and the hour, blessed hour. When we are working, it is most likely that that precious box where the time is shown that informs us that each time we have less work time left will become a usual place of pilgrimage for our eyes. But for all those users who do not have enough with the hour and minutes, they should know that the seconds can also be added.

Therefore that? There are many people who have the need to be punctual and the latter help them to be the first, either in sending an email, leaving work ... It also has its usefulness if punctuality and accuracy is not among our virtues, since enables us to time the time we have to wait to perform any task, for example download applications in a not very legal way. Within the clock alternatives in Windows 10 we can only adjust if we want the time to be adjusted automatically or we want to take care of that procedure.

To add the seconds to the time displayed in Windows 10 we must access the dreaded registry, a place where any poorly made change can have irreparable consequences. Luckily, in Windows News we always inform you of all the steps to follow so that your forays into the registry do not cause unwanted effects.
