All WorldClock variants are fully compatible with Windows Vista SP2, 7 SP1, 8, 8.1, 10, and 11.
The WorldClock.Net version downloads come in two varieties, one for 64-bit Windows and another for
32-bit Windows. If you don't know which version you're using, there's an easy way to find out:
- Press Windows Key + R to open the Run dialog box
- Type msinfo32 and press Enter
- In the System Information window that opens, look for the "System Type" in the right pane
- If it says "x64-based PC", then your Windows is 64-bit
- If it says "x86-based PC", then your Windows is 32-bit
The WorldClock.Net install programs below will check which version of Windows you're running and will tell
you if you've downloaded the wrong version. FYI most computers today run the 64-bit version of Windows.
Note that the WorldClock.Classic install programs below only come in one variety, the 32-bit version. This is
compatible with both 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Windows.

Useful Tip Configuring The WorldClock Screen Savers
|
Note: I use "(.Net)" notation below to indicate that this applies to both the .Net and .Classic
screen savers.
When you're configuring the settings for your screen saver, it gets more than a little tedious
using the Windows screen saver applet. You click on Settings, change your settings, click Ok,
click Preview, and repeat over and over until you finally have everything as you like.
But if you've elected to have the WorldClock installer create both of the WorldClock(.Net)
Screen Saver and WorldClock(.Net) Screen Saver Settings desktop shortcuts, you can
use these shortcuts to speed up this process considerably. Just follow these steps:
- First of all, use the WorldClock(.Net) Screen Saver Settings shortcut to open the
Windows screen saver applet. Now click the Settings button and this will bring you to
your screen saver's settings window.
- Now modify your settings as you like and then click the Apply button. Do not
click the OK button as this will close the settings window. By clicking the Apply
button instead, your new settings will be saved but you will stay in the settings window.
- Now double-click the WorldClock(.Net) Screen Saver shortcut and this will activate
the screen saver using your latest settings.
- Go back to step 2 and repeat as often as necessary.
As you've probably noticed, WorldClock has a wide variety of settings and I'm sure you will
want to experiment; this technique greatly facilitates this process.
