Drag the right edge of the taskbar just to make it slightly wider.

The problem is that I want small taskbar buttons AND see time & date.Īs soon as you switch to small taskbar buttons, the taskbar is no longer wide enough to show the date and therefore just omits it.

I installed Windows 10 and activated the “use small taskbar buttons” checkbox in the TaskBar properties. Well, this is kinda stupid, but it still took me too much time to figure it out.
