The clock in side bar is neat but is one hour slow and cant change the time.
Time on task bar is right.
Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong.

user" because it's a UAC/UAP setting to change your clock)
I think he meant the sidebar clock, not the Windows clock. Changing the
sidebar clock should not cause LUA/UAC/UAP to kick in (I hope!!!).

or both should be busted. Try explaining the difference to newbies, or
your mother...
The sidebar clock is a display item only - and it lets you put up multiple
clocks showing different time zones. It doesn't affect the clock of the
PC, therefore shouldn't need administrative privileges to manage.
Homer said:That being said, I think the clock gadget should go out of its way to
present three settings to the user (possibly with radio buttons) in simple
terms:
a) keep it synchronized with the systray clock, whatever its settings
are--so whenever you do change the systray clock, the gadget follows
automatically
b) let the user pick a timezone; the clock automatically figures out the
correct time to show based on that
c) completely free-form
Of course, having option A available implies that if the user wants to
change the gadget's time, you then need the appropriate rights, just like
the tray clock...
I dunno...it's just that in its current state, if someone change the
gadget time, he's left wondering why his settings don't "stick"...
