Show the clock - Taskbar and Start Menu Properties - Notification Area
Hi,
I have a domain controller for a domain called mydomain.com. In this domain I have few Windows 2003 Servers for all this machines I want when an user is login on the clock icon from the notification area to be displayed. This are the steps I have done already:
I create a group policy for all the users from this domain with this rule: User Configuration -> Start Menu and Taskbar -> Remove Clock from the system notification area -> Disabled
I create this logon script:
' VBScript.
On Error Resume Next
Dim Shell
Set Shell = CreateObject("WScript.Shel
shell.Run "C:\windows\regedit.exe /s \\server_name\clock.reg"
' clock.reg file
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Softwar
"Settings"=hex:28,00,00,00
00,00,00,fe,ff,ff,ff,5f,03
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Softwar
"HideClock"=dword:00000000
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Softwa
"HideClock"=dword:00000000
Still no luck when a user is logged on the clock is not shown.
I need some help with this because I want to put in this domain 100 windows 2003 servers.
Thank you.

After logging in, try killing the explorer process and restarting it to see if the clock comes back. Its easiest done from the cmd prompt.
type taskkill /f /im explorer.exe and enter...the desktop should disappear...then type start explorer and your desktop should come back.
Let me know what happens
