Resolved Date has disappeared when time on task bar is scrolled over

The time appears on the task bar in the lower right hand corner. When I would put the cursor on the time, the date would pop up. This feature seems to have stopped. How do I restore it?
Thanks.

 

Have you tried rebooting the PC?

 

Sounds like the taskbar bug that seems to hit every once in a while. Rebooting should take care of it but you can get it to come back without rebooting by right clicking on the taskbar and choosing properties. In the window that opens click on the taskbar tab and then uncheck the line that says "keep the taskbar on top of other windows ". Then click apply, then OK. Then see if you can see the date. Then go back and put a check back in the box next to that line, apply, ok and you should be good to go.

It's a bug that's been around a while. Basically, what happens is the tooltip is there but for some reason it's behind the taskbar. Going through this routine fixes it until the next time the bug shows up.

 

Thanks Zander for your help.
When I uncheck the box "keep taskbar on top ", click apply, the date does show again, but when I go back and check the box. the date disappears. I will try to reboot.
Do you have any other solution?
Thanls.

 

I rebooted with it unchecked and then the date shows, I then checked the box. seems to be working now.
Thanks.
