Appreciate your tips!

However, and alas, as you see in the attached,
the long date format shows as,
Saturday, 06/21/2025 11:42 AM at 11:42:08 AM

Notice that the time is duplicated!

Any thoughts?

Where exactly are you seeing this - the menu bar in the top right corner?

This is what I'm seeing in Sequoia 15.5

You have nothing showing for Date Format. It is not possible for me to unselect, leaving that "blank". What happens when you click that? Perhaps this is just a general format preference setting, and you have to go into Control Center, as suggested above, to affect the Menu Bar.

Dear Gregg2,
Thank you for your reply, however, I'm looking for actual SOLUTIONS, not
what if, or maybe etc.
Further, please read the entire post, to understand that I have already tried the Control Center suggestion, which did not succeed in affording a solution.

Based on the screenshot, are you referring to the date and time text above the Region line?

If so, the first line is the date and time that you opened the Settings app. The second line shows examples of date, money and number values. Neither date format matches what will actually be displayed on the right side of the menu bar.

The attached shows what you're asking about:
the date and time text above the Region line.

However, and thank you, this is the first time I'm see money values!!!!!!!!!!!!

Where is this coming from???

"Based on the screenshot, are you referring to the date and time text above the Region line?"
I do not know what you are referring to.

It is created by the program logic that formats the "example section" of the "Language & Region" window. Both lines are formatted based on the selected region. The formatting is not affected by any changes in the Control Center Clock settings.

I was quoting post #5.
