如果您需要与来自不同时区的人保持联系，您可以在(time zone)Windows 10任务栏上最多添加两个时钟，以快速查看他们所在地区的时间。如果您正在旅行，这也很方便，因为它允许您安排通话、会议和任务，而无需记住或搜索相应的时区(time zone)。本教程展示了如何直接(world straight)从Windows 10任务栏中的通知区域(notification area)查看世界其他地区的当前时间：
注意：(NOTE:)提供的功能在Windows 10 November 2019 更新(Update)或更新版本中可用。如果您使用的是旧版本的Windows 10，您可能无法访问所有功能。检查您的Windows 10版本，并在必要时获取可用的最新Windows 10更新。
如何在 Windows 10 任务栏的通知区域添加一两个时钟(notification area)
配置 Windows 10 以在任务栏的通知区域(notification area)显示额外的时钟很容易。首先(First)，右键单击或按住系统托盘中的(system tray)时间和日期按钮(time and date button)，然后单击或点击上下文菜单中的"Adjust date/time"。
这将从时间和语言(Time & Language)设置中打开日期和时间选项卡。(Date & time)向下滚动到“相关设置(Related settings)”部分，然后单击或点击“为不同时区添加时钟("Add clocks for different time zones)”。
在“日期和时间”("Date and Time")窗口中，您将进入“附加时钟(Additional Clocks)”选项卡。您可以在此处使用“显示此时钟”("Show this clock")复选框添加两个额外的时钟。
提示：到达(TIP:)“日期和时间”窗口的“("Date and Time")附加时钟(Additional Clocks)”选项卡的另一种方法是打开“控制面板(Control Panel)” ，转到“时钟和区域("Clock and Region)”，然后单击或点击“添加不同时区的时钟("Add clocks for different time zones")” “日期和时间”("Date and Time")部分。
要启用额外时钟，您需要选中“显示此时钟”("Show this clock")复选框。您可以添加一个或两个附加时钟，但过程是相同的。单击(Click)或点击该框。
您现在可以编辑此时钟的其他选项。单击或点击(Click)“选择时区”("Select time zone")字段（或字段本身）旁边的箭头以打开下拉菜单。滚动(Scroll)浏览可用选项并选择您想要的时区(time zone)。我们选择了英国的(United Kingdom)时区(time zone)- (UTC + 00:00) Dublin, Edinburgh, Lisbon, London。
在“输入显示名称”字段中，您可以选择将额外时钟重命名为比默认("Enter display name")时钟 1(Clock 1)更通用的名称。输入一个暗示性的名称，例如您感兴趣的国家或城市的名称 - 我们写为United Kingdom。
如果要向任务栏添加第二个额外时钟，请选中第二个“显示此时钟”("Show this clock")框。然后，选择时区 - 在我们的例子中，(UTC + 05:30) Chennai, Kolkata, Mumbai, New Delhi - 并输入该时钟的名称 - 我们输入了India。如果取消选中其中一个额外时钟的复选框，则不再显示时区，但 Windows 10 会记住您的设置。(time zone)这使您可以在需要时启用每个时钟，而无需每次都重做设置。完成后，单击或点击(click or tap)OK或(OK)Apply ，(Apply)现在可以从系统托盘(system tray)查询您的时钟。
提示：(TIP:)如果您需要同时关注 3 个以上的时区，请阅读如何在(How)Windows 10 开始菜单(Start Menu)上固定多个城市的时间。
如何从 Windows 10 的通知区域(Windows 10)检查附加时钟(notification area)
要快速检查您添加的额外时钟，请将鼠标光标悬停在(mouse cursor)系统托盘(system tray)中显示的时间和日期(time and date)上。工具提示显示您感兴趣的其他时区，以及(time zone)Local time。在我们的场景中，我们使用美国(United)太平洋(States)时间(Pacific Time)作为本地时间，并使用之前添加的英国(United Kingdom)和印度(India)时区作为附加时钟。
您还可以单击或点击任务栏通知区域中显示的(notification area)时间和日期(time and date)以打开窗格。您要关注的额外时钟显示在窗格顶部的本地时间下方。
提示：(TIP:)如果您有兴趣了解有关时间相关设置的更多信息，还可以阅读如何(How)在 Windows 10 上更改时间（及相关设置）。
为什么需要额外的时钟？
每当我们旅行或与来自不同时区的合作者进行项目时，我们都会使用额外的时钟。这让我们免去了在想要打电话或安排(call or schedule)会议时手动转换时间的痛苦。你呢？为什么在Windows 10的任务栏(Windows 10)通知区域(notification area)上需要额外的时钟？请在下面的评论中告诉我们。
How to add clocks to the taskbar's notification area in Windows 10
If you need to keep in touch with people from different time zones, you can add up to two more clocks to the Windows 10 taskbar to quickly check the time in their part of the world. This also comes in handy if you are traveling, as it allows you to schedule calls, meetings, and tasks without having to remember or search for the corresponding time zone. This tutorial shows what to do in order to view the current time for other parts of the world straight from the notification area in Windows 10's taskbar:
NOTE: The features presented are available in Windows 10 November 2019 Update or newer. If you are using an older version of Windows 10, you might not have access to all the features. Check your Windows 10 build and, if necessary, get the latest Windows 10 update available.
How to add one or two clocks to Windows 10 taskbar's notification area
Configuring Windows 10 to show additional clocks on the taskbar's notification area is easy. First, right-click or press-and-hold on the time and date button from the system tray, and then click or tap on "Adjust date/time" from the contextual menu.
This opens the Date & time tab from the Time & Language settings. Scroll down to the Related settings section and click or tap on "Add clocks for different time zones."
In the "Date and Time" window, you are taken to the Additional Clocks tab. This is where you can add two additional clocks using the "Show this clock" checkboxes.
TIP: An alternative way of reaching the Additional Clocks tab of the "Date and Time" window is to open the Control Panel, go to "Clock and Region," and then click or tap on "Add clocks for different time zones" from the "Date and Time" section.
To enable an extra clock, you need to check the "Show this clock" checkbox. You can add either or both of the additional clocks, but the process is the same. Click or tap on the box.
You can now edit the other options for this clock. Click or tap on the arrow next to the "Select time zone" field (or on the field itself) to open a dropdown menu. Scroll through the available options and select your desired time zone. We chose the time zone for the United Kingdom - (UTC + 00:00) Dublin, Edinburgh, Lisbon, London.
In the "Enter display name" field, you have the option to rename your extra clock to something less generic than the default Clock 1. Type in a suggestive name, like the name of the country or the city that you are interested in - we wrote United Kingdom.
If you want to add a second additional clock to your taskbar, check the second "Show this clock" box. Then, select the time zone - in our case, (UTC + 05:30) Chennai, Kolkata, Mumbai, New Delhi - and type in a name for that clock - we entered India. If you uncheck the box for one of the extra clocks, the time zone is no longer displayed, but Windows 10 remembers your settings. This lets you enable each clock when you need it, without having to redo the settings every time. When you are done, click or tap on either OK or Apply, and your clock(s) can now be consulted from the system tray.
TIP: If you need to keep an eye on more than 3 time zones at one time, read How to pin the time for multiple cities on the Windows 10 Start Menu.
How to check the additional clocks from the notification area in Windows 10
To quickly check the extra clock(s) you added, hover the mouse cursor over the time and date displayed in the system tray. A tooltip shows the additional time zone(s) you are interested in, alongside the Local time. In our scenario, we used the United States Pacific Time as our local time and the previously added United Kingdom and India time zones for the additional clocks.
You can also click or tap on the time and date displayed in your taskbar's notification area to open a pane. The extra clock(s) you want to keep an eye on are shown under the local time at the top of the pane.
TIP: If you are interested to learn more about time-related settings, you can also read How to change time on Windows 10 (and related settings).
Why do you need additional clocks?
We use additional clocks whenever we're traveling or if we're working on projects with collaborators from different time zones. This spares us the painful effort of having to convert time manually whenever we want to make a call or schedule a meeting. What about you? Why do you need extra clocks on the taskbar's notification area in Windows 10? Let us know in the comments below.
