Wondering if anyone knows of a decent desktop clock to stick on Win 11 desktop. I've tried 'Clocks' and 'Metroclock' from the appstore and they both look nice but while I want a decent size, they won't go too small and I can't get rid of the bar at the top with the minimize / maximize etc buttons.

 

There's always Rainmeter I suppose.

Is there some new feature in Windows 11 for doing desktop gadgets?

Thanks for the suggestion of clockx but I've already gone for Rainmeter.

What can I say - This Is The Way. Works well.

 

I do seem to tend towards the darker stuff, and I never thought I'd have a green clock with a basically purple backdrop, but it seems to work (to me anyway).
