How to display multiple clocks in Windows 10

Print Friendly, PDF & Email

A great feature of Microsoft Windows 10 is the ability to display multiple clocks from different locations at the same time within the system clock area. The way in which you can add additional clocks to your Windows 10 clock display is very clean and unobtrusive. It allows you to display up to 3 different time zones, or clocks, in total (including your own time zone) which is very handy when dealing with colleagues, associates, clients or even family who are overseas. Have a relative going overseas? Add their new time zone to your clock display and you will easily to be able to identify when they will be online for that next Skype call!
