How to display seconds on the taskbar clock
Windows 10 system usually only displays hours and minutes on the taskbar clock. What if you want to watch the seconds? How to make the taskbar clock in Windows 10 display seconds?
This is very simple, just adjust the Windows registry key and the taskbar clock will show seconds. No need to install any apps.

Here, I recommend using Wise Care 365 to back up the full registry.
