Sorry about this, but how does one set the clock to be a 24hour clock in Windows 10. I've been in Adjust Date and Time but I can't find an option to change to 'continental' 24hr clock.
Thanks

Re: Clock
Double click on clock in System tray, in the box that opens click on Region and Language, then at bottom open Additional Date and Time Settings under heading Regional Settings. OR open Control Panel and navigate to Clock, Language and Region Next open Change Date, Time or Number formats Click on arrow at end of Short Time format (h:mm) and select option HH:mm Click on arrow at end of Long Time (h:mm:ss) and select option HH:mm;ss Click on Apply and close Control Panel.
Make sure to use capital "H"'s which instruct to use 24H format.

Re: Clock
Sorry... my reply was taken from a thread in a Windows 10 forum that asked a similar question. I had no idea it wouldn't work as I am not on Windows 10. I thought I'd stumbled upon an acceptable solution, so I posted it.

Re: Clock
Just be aware that changing the date or time format through the clock settings will also affect the system date and time default formats. They'll show up, for example, in the file dates/times in File Explorer and in (default) dates in Excel.
