A Windows 8 clock on your Windows 7 desktop

Windows 8 Desktop Clock is a simple application that puts a clock inspired by the next OS release from Microsoft on your Windows desktop.

Microsoft's new operating system, Windows 8 , hasn't been released yet, but programs like Windows Desktop Clock 8 allow you to get a taste before the actual event. Installing the clock is very easy - just download, unzip and run the program file.

Windows 8 Desktop Clock displays the time, date and day of week. The minimalist design and transparencies give a futuristic air to the clock, and it really is a very elegant way to display the time.

The downside - and it's a big one - is that Windows 8 Desktop Clock doesn't let you choose the size or the place where the clock appears.

Windows 8 Desktop Clock is a simple, free solution and a great way to get a taste of the new Windows 8.

Waste of time.. Do not install this app it locks up your pc and you have to restart your pc I'm trying to uninstall it as there is no uninstaller in the package.

Does what I need. Could do it better.. Seems to work fine in Win 10. I use it to display day, date, time on my second monitor, something Microsoft can't seem to figure out. (I use full screen to for several apps on my primary monitor.) I would like more personalization. All I want is a box to display day date & time. Also I would like it to start on boot up.

Needs some personalization. Needs personalization so it can inform you of birthdays/anniversaries

This software program is potentially malicious or may contain unwanted bundled software.

Why is the software program still available?

Based on our scan system, we have determined that these flags are possibly false positives.

What is a false positive?

It means a benign program is wrongfully flagged as malicious due to an overly broad detection signature or algorithm used in an antivirus program.
