Change date, time, region settings in Windows 10.

Hello Philippe,

We regret for the inconvenience. Let me assist you further to resolve the issue.

To be able to assist you better, let us know a few more details on the below questions.

• Are you referring to any functionality issues when you say 'I could double click on the "date-time" box in the task bar to change or not something, now no more possible.'?
• Which time zone are you currently in?

Now, the easiest way access date, time and region in Windows 10 is to simply open up the Settings menu and click
Time & language.

However, you can also access this tab by clicking the clock on your taskbar and clicking
Date and time settings, or by clicking the language icon on your taskbar and clicking
Language preferences (though this will take you directly to the Region & language section).



Now, once you are on the Date and time page, you can set the time to adjust automatically or change it manually. Do not forget to select your Time Zone according to the country you live in.

Alternatively, the related settings for Date, Time and regional settings can be accessed from the Control Panel where you can change the language, region and date and time of your PC in the old classic way, you used to do in the previous
versions of Windows.

Write to us with the updated status and the required information related to date and time settings in Windows, for us to be able to assist you further.

Thank you.

 

Is there a way to change the language of the time and date at the start screen?

Hello,

Thank you for visiting Microsoft Community.



As per the description, I understand that the language in which your date and time are getting displayed is Filipino. I will certainly help you with the issue.



I would suggest you to manually set up your computer to synchronize with Windows time by following the steps below:

1. Type "date and time" in the search bar and open it.

2. Click on "internet time" tab.

3. Click on "change settings".

4. Check "synchronize with an internet time server"

5. Under server, select time.windows.com
from the drop down list.

6. Click on "update now" and click
ok.

7. Restart your computer and check if the issue persists.



Also make sure the time zone is set correctly by following the steps below:

1. Press Windows key + I

2. Click on "time and language".

3. Click on "date and time"

4. Choose the appropriate time zone from the drop down list.



Hope the information helps.



Reply us with the status of the issue.
