If you want an analog clock with seconds hand, go to Microsoft store and search for "Clock" There are several.

Windows 10 has not had an analogue clock. It has always been digital. You might have had some additional utility that generated an analogue clock, I suppose, but it was not part of Windows 10.
You could add seconds to the Windows 10 Taskbar/SysTray/Notn area clock.
Hide or Show Seconds on Taskbar Clock in Windows 10 - TenForumsTutorials
Perhaps you could search ElevenForum to see if an equivalent procedure exists for Windows 11.
Best of luck,
Denis

Denis, I think that procedure should still work in 11.

No, I'm afraid it does not work in 11. The clock/notification bit of the Taskbar is one of the parts that has been completely rewritten for 11. That registry setting to show seconds in 10 has no effect in 11.

- UPDATE - 11 April 2026: due to lid hinges starting to break up this laptop has been retired from active duty. The OS with all software and files has been migrated to my System Seven in 'Other systems' to carry on as my general purpose 'main machine'.
I've now clean installed 25H2 and used Garlin's scripts to update Secure Boot to CA 2023 and revoke the PCA 2011 certificates. It's new role is to test secure boot issues.
Info for 2021-2026:
fully 'Windows 11 ready' laptop. Windows 10 C: partition migrated from my old unsupported 'main machine' then upgraded to 11. A test migration ran Insider builds for 2 months. When 11 was released on 5th October 2021 it was re-imaged back to 10 and was offered the upgrade in Windows Update on 20th October. Windows Update offered the 22H2 Feature Update on 20th September 2022. It got the 23H2 Feature Update on 4th November 2023 through Windows Update, 24H2 on 3rd October 2024 through Windows Update by setting the Target Release Version for 24H2, and 25H2 on 30th September 2025 through Windows Update by setting the Target Release Version for 25H2.

I always enabled the seconds display under Windows 10. Apart from anything else, it provided a reassuring indication that the system was still running and had not hung.
