    Date and Time Notification Icon Missing In Properties


    Hello!

    I have a new Laptop running Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit. I turned off the time and date from the task bar and now I can't find the option to turn it back on. I've tried countless settings and tried the Microsoft website and it's not helping. Is there a way to enable my time and date notification on my task bar?

    Thanks!

    (1)Right click on your taskbar.
    (2)Click on Properties.
    (3)Go to Taskbar and start menu properties.
    (4)See on Notification Area click Customize.
    (5)You will get the box where all your icons are shown.
    (6)Click on Turn system icons on or off.
    (7)Select Clock and make sure it's set to ON
