Yes I'll always remember that, I found it quite amusing.
I'll have to direct my Wife to your last post, she has a bad memory and if I remember something that she has no recollection of she just accuses me of making it up :)

I guess that the fact you write wife with upper case W has something to do with your need to prove her you are right and didn't just imagine it...

No Kari i always use an upper case W for my Wife, we have three great kids and she's put up with me for 45 years. She even used to buy me a bottle of single malt every week until I decided not to drink so much of it. Surely that deserves an upper case W :)

Interesting, I accidentally stumbled upon one small bug.

The lock screen uses the long time format settings, but removes the seconds.

Here is how I have configured my time settings:
Long time: HH:mm:ss ( examples - 21:45:23 and 09:45:23)
Short time: HH:mm ( examples - 21:45 and 09:45)

I had accidentally put hh:mm:ss for long time format and the lock screen displayed 9:45. This proves the lock screen uses the long time format settings though it displays in short time format. After I fixed my error all looked as it should on the lock screen.

These are small error things that exist all over the place in Windows. I don't like it. This "bug" is not that critical, but if coding errors like this happen in the wrong place I am not surprised that something does not work properly, ever.

EDIT: If someone knows how to also display seconds on the lock screen, then please let me know. If that is possible, then this is not a bug at all.

If you use @Brink's "Show seconds on the Taskbar" .bat file, seconds will show on the WinKey+L screen only; however, the seconds get 'frozen' at time of locking!

Odd, Edwin. I have the taskbar clock using HH:MM:SS, but the lock screen still only shows HH:MM.

Are you using military format?

Anyone else with this minor annoyance:

After boot, be it cold start or restart, Audio icon in notification area shows white X on red background which typically means there is no audio devices installed:

Attachment 145025

However, audio works just fine, and first time colume is adjusted the X disappears. Not a big thing, not an issue, I'm mostly just iterested in knowing if this is caused by my own PC demons or if other users have experienced the same.

I thought the "x" means 0 level volume or no sound? Try turning the volume down to zero and the x will appear.

Hmmm..., beats me! Buggy, I guess!

AM/PM will show up too, if you put it on the Taskbar twice! Buggy or what!



Here's my formats:

Wow! We are totally different!
