how do you make the clock and date always visible in windows 8?

Hello,

On the earlier operating systems the date and clock would be in the lower right hand side.  The new windows 8 doesn't have that,  the date and clock appear for a little bit.  I must have the date and clock show at all times when I am on the computer.  Weather in websites or otherwise.  I searched topics and didn't appear to be a solution.

I must have it, if it is not an option, then someone at Microsoft windows needs to figure this out.

Thank you.

Hi Carmen,

Unfortunately, that option is not possible as it is designed in that way.

Hope this information helps.

    Hi Carmen,

    Welcome to Microsoft Community and thanks for posting the question.

     As per the description, you are having issues with date and clock missing.

    1. Are you referring to the Modern Interface mode where all the Apps are present?
    2. What do you mean by " the date and clock appear for a little bit"?

    The Desktop version of Windows 8 has a date and clock present at the lower right hand side.

    Reply to us if you face any issues with date and time icons or any other Windows Issue, and we would be glad to assist you.

    Have a nice day!

    Hope this information helps.

    Hello,

    Thank you for getting back to me.

    I have the clock in the Modern Interface modethat pops up, however I want it seeable at all times.  Somewhat like the desktop version.

     So whenever I go to the explorer or anything the date and time would show.  Everyone, in the family hates not having it.  I am trying to resolve the problem

    Can you please help?

    Thank you,

    Hello,

    How is it possible to have a new Operating system upgrade if lacks the one of the fundaments of the earlier version?

    If you search, their are thousands that what this option. 

    I would hope someone in IT over there is working on a fix.

    This is unacceptable and I am very upset customer, that has been using windows for a long time.  Maybe I should have gotten a Mac instead.
