FAQ

Download questions

Common questions about downloading and verifying ClockX.

Why is there a reCAPTCHA before the download?

The reCAPTCHA check protects the download server from automated bots and bandwidth abuse. It takes only a moment to complete — just check the box and the download starts automatically. If you prefer to skip it, use the direct official mirror at clocx.net.

The download didn't start after the reCAPTCHA

Try clicking the button again. If it still doesn't work, check that your browser isn't blocking pop-ups or redirects from this site. Alternatively, download directly from the official mirror: clocx.net/files/ClocX160_x64.exe.

Is ClockX safe? Windows SmartScreen is warning me.

Yes, ClockX is safe. The SmartScreen warning appears because ClockX is published by an independent developer (Bohdan Rylko) without a paid code-signing certificate — not because the file is harmful. ClockX has been distributed since 2007 with no reports of malware. To proceed: click More info → Run anyway. You can also scan the file on VirusTotal before running.

Which version should I download — 32-bit or 64-bit?

If you're on Windows 10 or Windows 11 on a modern PC, download the 64-bit version (ClocX160_x64.exe). Almost all PCs sold in the last 10 years are 64-bit. If you're unsure: go to Settings → System → About — if it says "64-bit operating system", download the 64-bit build. For 32-bit systems, download from clocx.net/download.php.

What's the difference between Standard and Full installation?

The Standard install (~4 MB) includes 24 PNG and 7 BMP clock skins. The Full install (~21 MB) adds 98 more PNG and 69 more BMP skins — 400+ total. You can choose during setup. The Full install is recommended if you want to browse all available styles. Skins can also be downloaded separately from clocx.net later.

Is ClockX really free? Any hidden costs?

Yes, ClockX is completely free — no trial period, no subscription, no "Pro" version. The developer asks only that you consider disabling your ad blocker on the official clocx.net website, as ads are the only source of income for the project. This site uses affiliate/partner download links — the official installer is always available for free directly at clocx.net.
