Windows 10's "update" turns off seconds on the taskbar's Calendar flyout

Windows 10’s “update” turns off seconds on the taskbar’s Calendar flyout

The upcoming Windows 10 update on April 8, 2025, will remove the display of seconds in the Calendar flyout. This change is part of the Windows 10 KB5053643 optional update, which is being rolled out but will not install automatically. The Calendar flyout will still appear when users click on the time and date in the taskbar, but it will no longer show seconds. Microsoft has previously cited performance concerns as the reason for excluding seconds from the graphical user interface. Support for Windows 10 is set to end on October 14, 2025.

The Windows 11 Release Preview channel update finally makes the battery indicator useful

Microsoft has introduced an enhanced battery indicator in the Windows 11 Release Preview build version 26100.3321. The new feature includes a color-coded system for battery status: a green icon indicates charging, a yellow icon signals energy-saving mode (activated at 20% battery or less), and a red icon alerts users to low battery levels. Users can also display the battery percentage in the system tray by enabling the “Battery Percentage” option in Settings > Power & battery. The update is being rolled out gradually, so not all users will see it immediately. Other features included in the rollout are file sharing via the taskbar and improvements to Windows Spotlight. Resources are available for users interested in the Windows Insider Program.
