Microsoft’s next-generation operating system, Windows 11, is very different from the previous operating system versions. The clock displayed in the toolbar in the lower right corner can only display the time and minutes, but cannot automatically display the seconds. In addition, even with the mouse click on the clock, the pop-up window also does not display the seconds. This is also one of the disadvantages that many users who upgraded from Win10 to Win11 criticized as poor experience.

In particular, it is quite inconvenient to be unable to quickly check the seconds directly on the Windows 11 system clock in order to grasp the time when every second counts on the auction website or when the ticket purchase enters the final time limit for bidding and ticket rush.

As for why the toolbar of the Windows 11 system cannot automatically display the “seconds”? In this regard, Microsoft also gave an official explanation recently that it is related to “performance”.

According to foreign mediaWindows Latest According to the report, Microsoft further explained that when the Windows 11 system was launched, the function of automatically displaying seconds in the toolbar has been completely removed. There are two main considerations. First, the frequent update of the clock application due to the “display seconds” will increase the CPU load, which in turn will cause the CPU performance of the user’s computer device to be affected and slow down.

The second is the periodic activity caused by the clock in the toolbar bar, which prevents the CPU from entering Windows 11’s power-saving low-power mode when the seconds are automatically displayed.
