text: time on taskbar appears as military time.? the time on my taskbar appears as military time (21:19 instead of 9:19).  i have looked at "adjust time/date" and it reads that the time is 9:19 and set to eastern time.  does anyone know how to fix this? goto   start/control panel/regional and language  under the regional tab, click on "customize" click on "time" tab  next to "time format:" make sure the letter 'h" in the box is lower case.   ex.  "h:mm:ss tt" = 9:19:12 pm           "h:mm:ss:tt = 21:19:12 pm  an uppercase "h"will show as 24 hrs
