What is ClocX?
ClocX adds a customizable analog clock to the Windows desktop. Choose a clock face, resize it and adjust transparency to suit your workspace. Window options let you keep the clock above other applications, pin it to the desktop or allow clicks to pass through it. Time zone selection is available in the Options dialog.
For reminders, configurable alarms can display a message, play a sound, launch an application or shut down the computer. A simple calendar is also included. The publisher offers separate 32-bit and 64-bit packages; the download linked here is the Windows 64-bit EXE for version 1.6.0.
Visual settings can affect resource use. The publisher recommends reducing antialiasing, disabling the second hand or zoom, or choosing a smaller clock face to lower CPU usage. If click-through prevents access to the clock's options, open Options from the system-tray icon instead.
What it offers
- Choose from configurable clock faces and adjust clock size and transparency.

- Set alarms to show a message, play sound, launch an application or shut down the PC.

Good to know
- Clock appearance settings can increase CPU usage; the publisher recommends simpler rendering settings or a smaller clock face to reduce it.
