How to recover date and time on second screen

Here’s how to fix the problem easily and for free if you use Windows 11 and miss the clock on your monitor.

Windows 11 brings a real facelift to the Windows interface with many modern components. Unfortunately, the system is not without glitches and has some toothbrushing problems not found in older versions.

One of these issues is the lack of date and time on the second screen.
