windows 7 - View the current day in the taskbar

Is there a way to view the current day (eg. Wednesday) next to the date and time in the taskbar?

I can never remember the day when I need it, so is there a way to add the day in the taskbar?

Answer

Yes, it is possible:

• Go to the Start Menu, search for Region and Language and open it.


• Click Additional Settings


• Go to the Date tab


• Change the Short date to dddd dd/mm/yyyy. A human would read that as Day of week day/month/year

Note: This will also change the Date Modified column when viewing files in Windows Explorer.
