Description
Descibes the format in which time is displayed.
Change method
To change the time format, double-click Regional Options in Control Panel. Click the Time tab, and then select a format from the Time format list.
Note
Regional Options in Control Panel links the sTime and sTimeFormat entries. This ensures that the time separator and time format are synchronized. For example:
sTime |
sTimeFormat |
Meaning |
---|---|---|
: |
h:mm:ss tt |
8:20:00 AM |
Setting sTime and sTimeFormat independently in the registry can result in conflicting values. To repair these settings, use Regional Options in Control Panel.
Setting only one value in the registry might not change the time as it appears in applications, because an application can read either sTime or sTimeFormat.
