Microsoft's decision to eliminate the seconds display feature from the clock in Windows 11 has ignited lively debates among internet users. The company rationalized this move by explaining that, despite modern computers' ample memory, the constant updating of seconds in the taskbar clock can exacerbate the device's workload, potentially impacting overall performance. This is particularly significant in multi-user environments where updating the taskbar clock every second can significantly drain CPU resources, preventing the CPU from transitioning to low-power modes. Consequently, to enhance system efficiency, Microsoft has opted to omit this feature.
